  • Review: Galaxy Buds easily beat Apple's AirPods but are years late to the game

    Abalos65 said: No, not really. But that was because I was never particularly interested in those. What has that to do with my point though?
    Because it's related to the idea of Samsung following Apple's direction. The "cheaper than AirPods" line is pretty popular with the 2019 Galaxy Buds, but being more economical wasn't their original approach. 
    This is in no way related to my original point. I reacted to a comment about the looks of the Galaxy buds, that's it. Your point is that because a company is lowering its pricing as a reaction to lower prices of a competing product it is somehow copying or following the competing company? I see that as regular market forces and a good thing personally.

    I agree. I know that for Linux, we will probably have it soon after losing intel CPU, but losing Windows compatibility will hurt many people.   

    Yes, this will be important for certain users. Although Windows 10 can already be run on ARM with x86 emulation for programs not recompiled, maybe it would be possible to bootcamp with this version of Windows 10.

    Remember the original price? $200.

    Wow, talk about a blatant rip-off of the AirPods! Absolutely disgusting!

    Companies like Scamsung and Huawei will never learn, this is their DNA; lie, cheat, steal, defraud until you get caught, then pay the fees, and rinse and repeat!
    These look NOTHING like the AirPods. use a completely different form-factor, and have features and functions Apple's product does not, just as Apple's product has a unique iconic look and Apple-specific features. How are they a "blatant ripoff"? In your haste to comment are you confusing images of the AirPods in the AI article as images of Samsung's product?
    Seriously?  If AirPods had never shipped, do you really think for a millisecond Samsung’s Galaxy Buds would have looked like this?  

    Get real, man.  Delusional.
    Yes, I do think that. Given that the Gear IconX 2016 buds (released before the AirPods) looked like this:
