I hate to be "that person," but, man, they just work. Even though I use bluetooth headphones when working in the office, I get a sense of pleasure when I put my AirPods in and hear that "ding" to indicate they connected instantaneously to my phone. I don't need to turn them on / off, or fuddle with bluetooth settings and shit. Customizing the taps on each ear to have different functions has been a cool feature too that might be nice to have additional customization options in the future (maybe tie in with the Shortcuts app in some way?)
Granted, I feel lucky that they fit my ear perfectly - I definitely feel empathy for some others that have had to buy the extra rubber pieces to help them fit.
I've tried the Pixel buds and a few other competitors, but the gap in quality is pretty wide IMHO.
