Early reviews suggest that the AirPods offer one of the easiest ways to listen to music or take calls on your iPhone, thanks to Apple&#8217;s trademark focus on simplicity.<\/p>\n<p>However, a few flaws have also been pointed out:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>They look weird in your ears, like electric toothbrush heads<\/li>\n<li>They will fall out of your ears and get lost immediately<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Thankfully, Spigen is here to save the day with a cheap and simple solution to both of these problems: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/spigen-iphone-7-7-plus-airpods-strap-white-61227\">a strap<\/a>.

That ensures that they can&#8217;t fall out of your ears, without getting in the way of the microphones at the tip or any other sensors. By keeping the AirPods in your ears, you&#8217;ll be able to avoid costly replacements &#8212; Apple is said to be charging a whopping \u00a380 for each AirPod that you lose.<\/p>\n<p>Once you want to start charging your AirPods, you can just wrap the Spigen Strap around the AirPods\u00a0charging case. Its tangle-free design (and minimal length) ensures this takes minimal time and effort, in keeping with the overall philosophy of the AirPods.<\/p>\n<p>As a nice side effect, your headphones also look much more normal, like Apple&#8217;s existing wired EarPods. Given the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.trustedreviews.com\/opinions\/apple-airpods-toothbrush\">online<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/mashable.com\/2016\/09\/07\/apple-airpods-look-like\/\">reaction<\/a> to their announcement, this is probably a good thing!<\/p>\n<p>The Spigen Strap for Apple&#8217;s AirPods is available for pre-order now.
