I feel safe taking my Apple Watch in the rain I feel safe using my iPhone in the rain yet the one thing that I don’t feel safe about are the Apple AirPods. This is ironic since AirPods will see more of the outside then the phone itself, i’ll be subject to more sweat than the watch and phone itself. Water and sweat resistance should be number one. We shouldn’t feel nervous about taking our AirPods in the rain. And it baffles me that the watch and phone is water resistant yet the AirPods are not. You might argue well the next generation of AirPods will solve this issue, but why couldn't it have been solved from day one considering these are something that people generally wear a lot of the time when working out or when outside.
