Headphones

Sound quality

Headphones rain supreme in the sound quality, the nice crisp sound is produced by the bigger speaker. Also, headphones have a ton more space to work with so they can put better noise cancellation and sound.

Comfort

It depends on how expensive the product is and your personal preference because many people do like headphones because they just sit over your ears, bad thing is that sometimes while you're running headphones can fall off of your ears Airpods can do this also.

Most higher-quality headphones have a memory form on the top, the piece that goes on your head, and the pieces that go on your ear ( ear pads ).

A lot of times these ear pads also help in passive noise canceling.

Bass

I don’t really know but I can tell you these headphones create a close tunnel effect where little air escapes so it is very close to your eardrums which means they can give out less bass but still sound like a concert.

Some headphones are built differently like the Skullcandy Crushers Evo which produces bass through a vibrator that basically shakes your skull like a concert.

Material

They are mostly high-quality plastic and metal extensions. Of course price of the headphones play a major role

Overview

Headphones usually provide more comfort, bass, and sound quality. They also have there downsides: they are bulky ( a lot of them can fold up but they are still pretty bulky ) and sometimes fall off while running and you can’t just charge them in a case like Airpods.

Airpods

Sound quality

These have smaller speakers and other components so these will produce worse sound quality.

This also happens with the battery, the battery is small and doesn’t have much life this is why there are rechargeable cases which you just stick your Airpods into.

Comfort

Most of the time, Airpods are less comfortable because they go into your ears, some people say the Airpods don’t fit into their ears and some people don’t like the plastic feeling of Airpods

Some EarPods use gel tips which can be interchangeable and come in all different sizes.

Bass

Same thing as headphones but this is closer to your eardrum so the bass doesn’t have to travel that far.

Even though they are closer to the ear, it still doesn’t produce the number of bass headphones create.

Overview

Airpods can be useful because they fit into your pocket, charge in your pocket, and are also easy to pair and put into your ears. Of course, the sound quality is sacrificed, they still have great sound quality but are not as good as headphones
