    Great job! The thing I like about the screen on the case is that it would at least partially make up for the loss of the iPod. It seems like if you wanted to you could disconnect from the world by leaving your watch and your phone at home and just taking the iPods with you when you wanted to go for a run or if you just wanted to go for a walk someplace.

    Some kind of "concert mode" for the Airpod Pros would be really useful so they could be used as active earplugs without compromising the mids and highs like even the best passive earplugs do. It's currently possible but the noise cancellation struggles with bass frequencies causing them to woof a lot.

    A set of AirPods that are usable as a standalone iPod Shuffle (AirPods Pro Shuffle) that can fit a few Apple Music playlists would totally have me upgrade from the AirPods Pro 2. Definitely fits the current trend of unthreading your life from constantly being online.

There is absolutely no way a company like Apple aren’t able to engineer something like that being serviceable. But it’s Apple so we all know how they are with right to repair…
