The British fashion site offers a "dummy" version of Apple's famous wireless headphones.
Are AirPods becoming... fashion accessories? Very popular since their release in December 2016, Apple's wireless headphones, made famous in particular by their rather particular aesthetics, have gradually carved out a place of choice in the daily lives of millennials . So much so that the online fashion site ASOS now offers a dummy version...sold as an "ear piece" .
It is the specialized American site Gizmodo which spotted this novelty, to say the least, funny on the site of the British firm. ASOS offers the product in its own "ASOS design" collection, and puts it on sale for the modest sum of 8.49 euros... for a single earphone, not the pair (anyway, they will not emit more of sound for two). A "little touch" ideal for "finishing a look", specifies ASOS on its site.
As a reminder, the AirPods were marketed at the end of 2016 by the Apple brand, which has since sold no less than 40 million copies. Recently, Amazon followed the same path by entering the market for wireless headphones. And we understand why:as BFMTV explains, the analysis firm Counterpoint estimates that 27 million products were sold in the second quarter of 2019.
And if you're on the verge of cracking up yourself, you can find Apple's AirPods (the real ones this time) on Amazon.
