> I went from not liking phone conversations at all (getting agitated after a few minutes)to comfortably having long phone calls

I love my Airpods. One of my favorite products of all time. But I've found them to be totally useless on calls. I'm on my third pair -- that's another thing: they wear out if you use them a lot -- and I've had 3 different phones in the meantime and nobody can ever hear me when I talk on them. I've tested it myself and they make the speaker sound very quiet and far away. It must not affect everyone, because I see people using them for phone calls, but I've never been able to make that function work.

I can’t bring myself to spend this much money on a device that has worse mic audio than my free airpods. And it’s the same for all wireless buds, the mic is just in the wrong position.
