I’ve never had a particular affinity towards any pair of headphones before buying the AirPods, but now I know I wouldn’t switch to anything else to handle my current headphone needs. I’ve been using them for more than a year with the iPhone and Mac, and they just work. Yes, you may experience the odd connectivity issue, especially if you’re running early beta software on your devices, but the AirPods are amazing. Apple rivals, meanwhile, have been trying for years to get into the AirPods groove, but nobody really managed to make a product as widely praised as the AirPods. A recent report said that both Google and Amazon are working on new AirPods rivals that will be released next year. Others are also developing their own AirPods alternatives, and the number of wireless earphones will only increase as more companies ditch the 3.5mm headphone jack. All of them should check out the new technology the French startup has developed, which promises an audio experience as seamless as the AirPods.

Regulators in California have come up with a proposed plan to raise more money to pay for expanding internet connectivity in the state by adding a text message surcharge to residents’ phone bills.
