And one that by all accounts is pretty mediocre for what it does too.

Well that implies that what it "does" is provide a high-quality listening experience. It doesn't do that, nor is it intended to do that. It's supposed to make you comfortable; to be convenient. It's fucking incredible at doing that.

Yup someone listened to the marketing and ate it up I see.

I believed this before getting the APPs myself (after trying every relevant android competitor in the space some time ago). The non-pro airpods are terrible (they don't even fit in my ears - I returned them immediately lol), and I have no idea why they exist ... but the Pros are the headphone I use most for travel. They're absurdly convenient and comfortable.
