I truly never thought I was cut out for the AirPod life. Call me a grandma, but I was tied to my old-fashioned headphones. Lame, I know. But, with a tendency to misplace things on the regular, I was hesitant to splurge on Apple’s release. I mean, it’s literally two floating buds and a tiny case. Would I forget them in the car? Leave them in my pocket? Throw them in the wash? The horror!
But then I discovered the most amazing AirPod case on the face of the planet, and I think I’m converting to the AirPod life. So what is the Hail Mary that made me flip the switch? I’ll give you a hint: It’s food inspired. Are you the least bit surprised?
Smoko, a Los Angeles-based company that makes home and office items, has opened pre-orders for a Little B Dumpling Airpod Case and a Pearl Boba Tea Airpod Case. OMG.
The cases are on sale for $12 (normally $15) and have an estimated ship date of September 20. The silicone case is fitted for AirPod Gen 1 and Gen 2 and will add a little extra cushion and protection to your pods.
What has me the most excited—besides the mushy and adorable faces—is the little hole on the side. Now, you can hook your Airpods up to your keychain and never panic about losing the coveted music players ever again.
So, are you more Boba or Dumpling?
