$549?! Apple’s prices are insane

I got spoiled for Christmas this year and my wife got me a pair. I would never have bought them for myself because of the price, but I must admit that I have used them every single day since I unboxed them and I wouldn’t want to go a day without them. The mic does a pretty good job at clarity and noise cancellation for voice recording/calls and, from my research, the comparable wireless Jabra headsets used in call centers aren’t far ahead, if at all. Plus no dongle.

Well, you asked.

If you want cheaper alternatives, there are the Airpods 3rd gen or the Airpods Pro 2nd gen. The Airpods Pro 2nd gen is probably the one to get, but it's still pricey. The Airpods 3rd gen is cheaper, but often does not fit small ears, is susceptible to ear wax, and does not sound as good (call quality is still decent, though).
