AirPods are my best purchase in the last two years. I talk to my research collaborators and clients on Skype almost every morning. The calls can go on for hours. I love the freedom I have to walk around the office while on call, airpods connected to mac. I also use them in the gym connecting them to the ipad while doing eliptical and switching to iphone while doing weights.

A counter anecdote: My AirPod purchase was a complete waste of money. The quality is OK at best, handoff between my X and iPad pro is crap, they don't always pair, and they fall out of my ears if I tilt my head at all.
I end up just using my Bose headphones (which are still a PITA for multiple devices), the airpods sit around unused.
Counter counter anecdote: handoff has never been a hassle for me between iPhone and iPad pro, and I've worn them for working out for a year and they've never fallen out
I'm sure that's the case in your experience and perhaps the experience of all people whose ears fall within the range of ear size/shape that Apple designed for.
But these things don't fit everybody. The wired version flies right out of my ear very easily. No way am I going to buy these things if tilting my head means losing one or both.
When I went to buy airpods, they let me try in the Apple Store. Why would you buy or keep these if you bought online when they don't fit your ears?
Honestly, I couldn't be bothered to return them. I gave them a chance for a month before giving up on them, and trying to find all the packaging just wasn't worth the effort.
I'm planning on giving them to some other family member here shortly, since it does seem like I'm in a minority when it comes to the fit.
You don’t need the packaging to return Apple products
