How many users do you think call Apple everyday to complain about issues with their third party, knockoff AirPods lookalikes? Could you imagine why Apple could be protective of the user experience of their hardware and sensitive to that user experience being compromised by poorly implemented or nonfunctional peripherals? For every Pebble user, how many people might buy ripoff Apple Watches?


I would not be surprised if more people called every day about how their AirPods aren’t working as expected.


Not sure how it’s relevant that paying customers receive customer service.


My point is that it's probably a rounding error for them.


At the moment precisely because Apple is protective of the user experience.
