      ???? good point. Why not just use your apple watch for that. I have a feeling this will not happen.

    You better believe I’d buy that! Might check into the reviews of JBL’s ear pod case when it’s released. Love this idea!

      Why? Seems like a stupid idea. Why would you carry your case with you instead of your phone? Or why use the case instead of the stems

    i think apple won’t do it because apple products are famous for there simple, minimalist design. But a product like this, few customers would like that but on a majority, i seriously doubt on the customer base. Also, it would lead to unnecessary price hike and the case itself will need a stronger battery to power the display which would either led to downfall in the overall efficiency of airpods or apple had to adjust a bigger battery which would make the product heavier altogether which is an unlikely thing apple would do.

    This is a terrible idea…most people put the case in their pocket now imagine handling this slippery case every time you need to play next or something. I mean kinda makes the Apple Watch redundant not to mention your phones power screen which again is one more thing that can be easily down without this complication. But doesn’t hurt to have a parent I guess

    No, this would go against Apple Design philosophy behind the AirPods. They are a device that’s by nature designed to have have the device removed from the case, following the case being put away such as back in the users pocket or bag. Adding a screen would be redundant as the design uses the mobile/computer display itself to control the AirPods as they are companion to those devices. Besides, the AirPods Max would not be able to receive this function, which would cause Apple to confuse users on what devices are better, which is also against Apples design philosophy.

      Yes, you’re right, similar to JBL, but it’s a good thing. Maybe they’ll add more features ???? ????.

    Thats kinda stupid tbh. You can already control from the stem, im more likely to carry my phone with me than my case.

    Lol how can you patent something you copied and already exists and is for sale?????… and how on earth do Apple get away with this without being called out by the tech community?

    The fact that Cnet made this video is shocking.

The VC Backing the American Dream with Manan Mehta, Unshackled Ventures

Immigrant founders have built some of the world’s most valuable companies, but many still face barriers that make it harder to get a startup off the ground.

Immigrant founders have built some of the world’s most valuable companies, but many still face barriers that make it harder to get a startup off the ground. Visa restrictions, limited access to friends-and-family capital, shallow networks, and a venture industry built around pattern matching can keep promising founders from getting funded before they have a chance to prove themselves.

In this episode of Build Mode () , host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Manan Mehta, co-founder and managing partner of Unshackled Ventures, () to talk about why he believes immigrant founders represent one of venture capital’s biggest overlooked opportunities. Manan breaks down how Unshackled built an investment model designed to help founders navigate immigration barriers, why traditional VC pattern matching causes investors to miss potential outliers, and how his team evaluates founders at day zero—often before they have a product, customers, or traction. He also explains why the structural gaps that make some founders harder to fund may be exactly where investors should be looking for outsized returns.

They get into:

The four structural barriers immigrant founders face when starting companies in the U.S.

How Unshackled Ventures helps founders navigate visas while building their startups

Why VC’s reliance on pattern matching can cause investors to miss outlier founders

How Manan evaluates founders before they have a product, customers, or traction

The IQ, AQ, EQ, and SQ framework Unshackled uses to evaluate founder potential

Why resilience, lived experience, and a founder’s relationship to the problem can matter more than a polished pitch

Why structural gaps can create some of the biggest opportunities for investors

How founders without traditional networks can find alternative paths to early capital

Why founders should understand their personal “why” instead of trying to fit the traditional VC mold
