    Do they have ANC, an 8hr battery life, and touch controls? If so, I suppose I would consider them.

    Edit: I see, AirPods are Bluetooth, EarPods are wired.

      They have infinite battery life because they are wired.

      Though I would love to see where you are finding wireless earbuds with ANC, 8 hour battery, and touch controls for $30.

        Easier to to keep them water resistant/dustproof, for one.

        On earbuds, there’s no much space for a button. Responding to just taps on the bud feels intuitive and works well.

        If you have a wire, controller on the wire makes more sense.
