An AirPod case at a crazy low price

Let's check it out. Dave Taylor here, and you know, my kids really like Apple AirPods
0:15
So do I. So we have a lot of Apple AirPods in this house
0:19
The problem is they all look alike. But you don't want to pick up the wrong pair because they are then connected to the wrong phone
0:26
So we have all sorts of challenges trying to figure out how to different
0:29
So I've used permanent marker on the back, but that wears off
0:34
I don't know why they call it permanent. It should be semi-permanent marker. I guess that doesn't sell as well
0:39
So my son said, oh, dad, seriously, you can buy stickers. You can buy skins for this stuff
0:45
And I'm like, hmm, I'm not sure I want to put a sticker on this, but I'll look at my options
0:49
So I went on Amazon.com, and I found this. This is the Marevo AirPods cover skin
0:57
And it is actually a pretty slick solution. So comes in this nice little box, you open it up, you take the skin out, and it's a fairly thick silicone
1:07
so it has that sort of soft, almost wet feeling to it, super flexible and everything, and it is perfectly engineered for your AirPods
1:16
So you just slip it in and then you put this over the top and you literally done That all I need to do And obviously it opens up and it closes There a hole on the bottom
1:28
So charging is easy. I do not have the AirPods 2 with the wireless chi charging
1:33
but I'm sure this is not going to get in the way of that. Do the AirPods too even have wireless charging
1:38
Yeah, I think they do. They just, Apple never came out with the charging pad
1:42
See? I just don't feel like that was enough of an upgrade from the AirPods one
1:47
for me to do it. Now, AirPods three apparently are coming out and they're going to have better sound and everything
1:52
but it's a whole other story. Oh, and they're also rumored to have like IPX5 or something
1:57
so they'd be sweat resistant and stuff too. That'll be cool. And you'll need a case for it because they all look the same
2:03
You can't even buy them in different colors. So this is a durable silicone. It's shockproof
2:09
And you can see by the design, it gives it a bit of a square bottom. So there's actually a fair amount there to help absorb shocks if you drop it
2:16
which is a good thing because these are fairly expensive. It's a perfect fit
2:20
I mean, it really is just like a no-brainer fit, and, you know, the AirPods are entirely and fully functional with this thing on
2:28
has a nice feel to it, and this little hinge on the back, they actually have apparently done something to make sure it's even stronger
2:36
because otherwise that a very likely place for things to break and they don want that to happen so they put some extra engineering effort into this Now here the thing is that it a really good solution and it comes in red or black
2:50
and there's other companies that make similar products. It is similar, though, not this inexpensive price point
2:55
We'll get to price in a second. But I don't understand the economic model here
3:00
I just got to say. But first, let me ask, go ahead and subscribe to my channel
3:04
Really appreciate when you subscribe. Cool. Now, the Marevo AirPods. cover skin with nice box and everything. It's $3.99 at Amazon.com. $3.99.99. That is less than a
3:18
latte at Starbucks. For this, including shipping, including the packaging. So here's my question
3:25
how the heck do they make any money at this? There's like this whole category of products on
3:31
Amazon that typically come from Far East manufacturing companies or warehouses or whatever
3:39
and they're so insanely cheap. I bought iPhone cases that were 99 cents, including shipping
3:47
and they come in a package or a box or something. And this is like, there is no way they're making any money at this
3:53
To sell this for $3.99 is crazy. You know, on the bright side, as a consumer
4:00
I am very happy to have it be so inexpensive and such a great solution for this problem But seriously I would have spent I probably would have spent on this thing
4:12
So I don't really fully get it, but, you know, as long as Amazon does have these super cut rate deals
4:18
then it is definitely a good thing for us consumers. Anyway, this is the Marevo AirPods cover skin
4:24
And if you have a pair of AirPods, I actually highly recommend these
4:28
These are really a nice, simple solution. and the price is so inexpensive that I bet if you go in your couch right now and just collect all the coins that have fallen in there that you'll find $3.99
4:40
And then you'll have this swanky cover. So, no brainer, just go and get one
4:44
There's actually a link in the description to this video. Use that and go and buy yourself one and I'm going to make like 0.9 cents, like less than one penny in affiliate commission
4:53
So raw, go team. But seriously, simple solution to a problem. And that's really all you can ask for
5:02
So with that, this is Dave Taylor, and I will catch you in my next video
