Amid a multitude of English and American authors, there were very few books from beyond the English-speaking world. So she set an ambitious goal: to read one book from every country in the world over the course of a…

???? 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.
