    But you see, that one has wires. We aren’t supposed to like wires.

  But… My earpieces already have 2 touch zones and multiple press combinations.

  Right, so it’s not really an iPod Nano.

  I tried a pair of earbuds with the same idea from AliExpress. They had the regular controls, but also worked as e.g. a camera remote. Very cool if it had done anything it was supposed to do consistently, but unfortunately it was not well-implemented. If the AirPods Pro 3 (which I was already strongly considering) have a case with a screen that isn’t much larger than the Pro 2 case, I’ll probably buy that model.

  Don’t the headphones already do that?

    My guess would be that you could control things like playlist, shuffle, etc. Like a smartwatch interface but only for music.
