Although the iPhone just started to cut the headphone hole, it was scolded by netizens as a younger brother.

But when users have experienced the AirPods series, they all typed out the word "true fragrance".

After all, its convenient and comfortable use experience often makes people forget to take it off after wearing it, and even set off a wave of real wireless headphones.

However, although AirPods are easy to use, the headphones and headphone boxes are relatively small, and many people are worried that they will accidentally lose them when they walk on the road one day.

In order to prevent loss, there are even various related fixed products on a treasure.

I've always had a problem, put on this kind of anti-throw rope, AirPods are still good to make...

Some time ago, a topic of #when middle-aged people bought AirPods# rushed to Weibo hot search.

In the topic video, a man can be seen putting a special protective case on the AirPods Pro and pinning it around his waist.

Dude, this put the AirPods Pro out of the feel of a BB machine.

I looked for a treasure, and the sales volume of the same model was basically not more than 100.

This waist hanging AirPods is full of the sense of the riot operation, but also let many netizens recall the memories of listening to songs in those years.

Let's skip the phonograph, vinyl record stage Ha, after all, a little long ago.

Start with the radio and tape recorder that is relatively close to us.

I think back then, the mainstream tape recorder equipment was "stupid big black thick", which could only be used in fixed places such as homes and offices.

Turning your fingers or pencils to pull out the tape, being found by your parents and beating them up, I believe it is the common memory of many people.

In 1979, Sony launched its first Walkman, which became a blockbuster product.

How hot is the original Walkman? Nowadays, it can be seen in many film and television dramas with nostalgic elements.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a memory of an era.

Compared to mainstream recorders, the Walkman is only larger than the size of the palm of the hand, allowing us to truly experience what it means to "take music out of the house".

At this time, Walkman also used tape as the playback medium.

The disadvantages of tape are obvious: it is easy to cassette, demagnetize, and the sound quality will deteriorate over time.

People began to seek alternative media to tape.

In 1984, Sony introduced its first Discman (later renamed CD Walkman).

Like Walkman, Discman reduced the "silly big black and thick" CD player to a size that can be carried around.

When the CD format is popular all over the world, there are also many people who oppose it because of its large size and other characteristics.

Sony then developed a new MD (MiniDisc) specification, which is only 6.4cm in diameter, a quarter of the CD area, while maintaining the original excellent sound quality.

After the emergence of MD specifications, Sony also launched the corresponding MD machine products - MD Walkman.

That's right, it's Sony again, it's Walkman again...

However, the price of MD Walkman is also relatively expensive, which also makes the MD specification a relatively niche product.

And the rapid rise of MP3 a few years later also made MD, a product that wanted to make discs more perfect, quickly decline.

Speaking of MP3, I believe that young friends are more familiar.

When MP3 emerged, it had entered the digital age, and as long as you connected music to the computer and wrote it to the machine, you could listen to music anytime, anywhere.

Thanks to the small body volume, many people like to hide MP3s in the classroom, the headphone cable through the sleeves, and the hands support the head to listen to songs.

Friends who have had the same experience should be familiar with this "pretending to be in a daze" action.

Coupled with the fact that domestic copyright has not yet awakened in those years, the cost of recording songs is almost zero.

Downloading music and listening to it on MP3 or computer at any time has become the listening habit of many people at that time.

After all, the network speed was relatively slow at that time, and the online listening to songs was one card and one card, who could stand up.

Of course, with the rise of mobile networks and smart phones, people only need a mobile phone to get online, listen to songs and other operations.

However, compared with the simple listening to songs in the past, the music software on smartphones is indeed a bit messy.

Obviously, it is a song listening software, but it is necessary to plug you with a short video function and a live broadcast function.

It is common to even bring a product by the way and sell accessories such as headphone microphones.

Sometimes I listen to a song at night, but I can't sleep all night because of the EMO quotes in the comment area.

I don't know how many people like me, all miss the era when it was simple to listen to a song.
