No one is going to seriously use these in public

Tbf I thout so about wireless earbuds when the first Airpods were announced and now they are everywhere. Also iirc people tought so about headphones back when the first Walkman came out and that was a huge succes aswell (Don't quote me on that, I wasn't alive yet.)

You're valid. I too remember when Airpods "encouraged" (heh) other brands to go TWS. My comment is more specifically pointed at their VR/AR googles.
