But but but — “AirPods are too expensive and have bad battery life!” Oops, yeah now they’re looking even better. 

I can't speak for these new products, but AirPods just don't have good sound.  They're cheap earbuds that have been made wireless.

Personally I think they have great sound for what they are (i.e. such a tiny speaker and tiny battery working over Bluetooth). Anyone who wants brilliant heavenly sound quality wouldn't be buying this type of product anyway.

The following happens to me on a weekly basis: all of a sudden Safari won't load a webpage - it will just sit there teasing me with its tiny blue progress line. So I close a bunch of apps and when I return to Safari the page loads lickety-split. I have a ton of tabs open, which may or may not also cause a problem. But hey, the 'experts' keep telling me it's pointless to close apps, so my experience must be bs right?!
