The new Surface Earbuds are Microsoft’s first truly wireless earbuds

That would push me into insta-buy territory. Severely doubt it, though.
$250 kills it for me
why get those when perfectly serviceable wireless buds are half that price

I change my mind, I think these look pretty sexy, I could easily rock these. But $250, while it is a fair price, I'm gonna pass. Maybe in three years when it's already popular, it's $99.
Young people can easily wear this for fashion, it would either look pretty cool or make you look like a dork. Either way
Millenial shit
Why did they pack so many features? Come up with a simple version; $100 insta-buy

Probably bad. The Surface headphones are god awful, especially compared to their Bose and Sony competition. It's not like it's even better in terms of active noise cancellation either.
Wires between the ears
In the (now distant) past, wireless earbuds only eliminated the wire to the source device
ngl the thought had occurred to me, and skins for customization actually sound neat
I agree the price is a little steep. The design has grown on me today, but cost and lack of any physical buttons put me off.
Well... that's hideous. I mean I dont really like the airpods design either and think the galaxy buds are the best looking design so far, but this is another step of odd. I'd struggle to come up with a worse design without intentionally being a dick about it.
this gif is exactly what sold me
this 100%

That's taking it a bit far.
All headphones/earphones look funny, by the way. We just get used to them.
They don't look any goofier than AirPods to me, personally.
(For the record, I think AirPods look pretty goofy...
...Yes I still wear them. No I am not a good person)

If it doesn't mess up the gesture controls, that would be cool.
I think they have a very unique design that could grow on me. I doubt I'd buy them anytime soon but perhaps in the future.
I'd get stickers of my ears so it looks like I'm wearing nothing.
Why do none of these companies get that probably the best thing about AirPods is how small the charging case is and make theirs in a case the size of a clutch bag.
To say nothing of the design. If you think AirPods looks remotely as bad as these, ya'll wildin'.

I might have to get myself some of these for my Surface!

Seriously. The Office integration features are something I doubt many people will ever use and that seems like the only thing these are doing that is interesting.
The case also looks really large and wouldn't be comfortable to have in a pocket.
The most comfortable fully wireless buds I've ever tried were the Bose Soundsport Frees, which were also didn't do sound isolation (sadly they had bad audio/video sync issues and conntivity problems in addition to being really large).
Bose is making a new model this year and one with sound isolation next year, and if they can keep the comfort of the Soundsports, they'll be the ones I'll keep an eye on, even if they will be expensive (but still probably no more than these Microsoft ones). Otherwise I'll be waiting for reviews of the Echo Buds.
I currently have Samsung Buds which are fine, but nothing special. Sound quality isn't the best and while they're nice and small, they get uncomfortable (at least in my right ear) after about an hour.
