Apple AirPods A Year and A Half Later

Apple AirPods was announced in late 2016 in the US but I got mine early 2017 And I’ve used them every single day since. I don’t leave without them, I don’t enjoy walking outside without them, I don’t talk on the phone without them, I don’t run(fast walk) without them and most of all, I don’t listen to my songs without them anymore.

Hopefully, for the next Apple event, they will announce a new pair of Airpods because mine are starting to wear. I can only get 2-2.5 hrs of music time on the right ear. I’ve been itching to get a new pair but I don’t want to waste my money on a soon to be obsolete device (if Apple hopefully decides to announce a new one).

Tripping down memory lane, I remember how people ridiculed the aesthetic, price, and overall APPLENESS of AirPods.

Tim Cook said in an interview before the launch of iPhone 7 and AirPods that they are going to give us something we need that we don’t even know we needed it. At first I thought he was talking about iPhone 7 because it was supposed to be the highlight of the event, but even an Apple fangirl like me would say that iPhones offer little innovations lately. 

I was excited for the AirPods since it’s announcement and I got a little hurt whenever people made fun of it. The case looked like dental floss (true), they are ugly and sticks out like a ridiculous tooth brush in your ears (people love their dental hygiene, that’s good), $159 for a little pair of earphones is unacceptable (yep they are expensive, but so are the competition), the one size fits all earphones argument (luckily I did not have that problem), they sound horrible (I have always been satisfied with Apple’s EarPods so no complaints here).

But why have people changed their minds? Most people actually consider AirPods as Apple’s greatest tech offering in the last couple of years. It really pushed consumers and other tech companies to foray to wireless earphones, which have been around for years. People hated them at the beginning but more and more people are wearing them now and praising the little piece of device for its innovation.

And, honestly, one of the main reasons why I stay in the Apple ecosystem is because of this little piece of device. My AirPods just works. I use my iphone, they are connected, I use my ipad, my mac, apple tv, even my watch, the AirPods connect and work seamlessly.

That is how you make an innovation. Thanks, Apple?

Here’s what I’m wishing for the next gen AirPods:

  1. More gestures. C’mon Apple, using my watch can be helpful my my music but 2 years is an ample time for you to do your wonders for more controls ON the airpods, right? <3
  2. Noise cancellation. Pretty please :*
  3. Colors. Can you please make a gold one, to match my phone, ipad, macbook, and watch? XD
  4. Wireless charging. Please? Release the AirPower while you’re at it too.
  5. Find my AirPods. I often misplace my case. Can we atleast be able to ‘ping’ it when it slips in between the cracks of my sofa or hides under the deepest parts in my bag. Luv u!

Oh my GOSH! It's been two years since I last updated this blog. I remember when I first started I was just a college student trying to save up my allowance and do some light reviews of my fave makeups. Well, quick update, I've graduated from college, worked for a financial BPO company and then resigned. Still no boyfriend though >.< Aaaanyway, onto the Glutathione... As a kid, I grew up being morena and was usually teased by my family because most of my cousins and brother are mestizos and mestizas. Yup, that's me and my brother way back when we were really small. See the big difference in our complexion?  Over the years I've tried using different whitening soaps, lotions, sunblocks and umbrella to the max during summer, which paid off and helped lightened my skin. I was happy because of that but, I still had problems on my skin because I regularly had cystic pimples just popping up on my face and leaves marks that I thi...

MET Tathione Glutathione Soap, Oral Supplement, and Lotion (New Formula) Review

I am not new at taking oral glutathione supplements. I have tried a couple of products in the past and the deal with them is you HAVE to continuously take them to maintain their effect on your body. Luckily, it is safe to take glutathione for long periods of time. I have not had any bad experiences with glutathione brands I've taken before but I have to admit I was not a very disciplined user. I usually finish a bottle or two and then stop, then take another bottle and then stop again. I haven't taken anything for 8-9 months before I realized that my skin was not as supple as I wanted it to be and I started to see zits popping at my face. For the past 2 weeks though, I started to take MET glutathione. I tried this brand before and although I was not unhappy with the result, I was not very impressed too. But since I have been reading their new and improved formula, I went to the drugstore and bought a bottle to try it again, this time I bought the soap and the lotion so I ca...
