Can you answer a call with AirPods faster than EarPods? [closed]

I am considering to purchase the Apple Airpods. Currently I use Apple Earpods. My only consideration in this purchase is: how fast can I answer a call and start using it.

Could someone who has both please measure the time it take to:

CONTESTANT A

  • Remove AirPods from a purse/bag
  • Open case
  • Insert pods to ear
  • Switch over from talking with phone to talking with pods

CONTESTANT B

  • Remove EarPods from bag
  • Unwrap earphones (wrapped using the power-chord crossover style)
  • Insert phones to ear
  • Plug phones into phone

This is a serious question. I do not like all these new products with a million new features but the one important thing adds a few seconds to each use. So I need to know if the AirPods are a step forward or a step backward.


Solution 1:

AirPods are much quicker, as you don't have to spend 5 minutes untangling them. No matter how you wrap them, it's going to happen. Also, switching is automatic, so no need to worry there.
