This news has skillfully taken advantage of marketers "bull's-eye". The fact is that the headset continued to work in the stomach of a Taiwanese. Imagine the surprise of doctors.
What happened in the end?
According to Ben Hsu himself, he did not even understand that one of the headphones was in his belly. This became clear after he beeped using the Find My AirPods feature. Accordingly, the guy did not feel much discomfort, but he turned to the hospital to avoid risks. After the X-ray, the theory was confirmed. The earphone really was in the abdomen, which the doctor suggested either to wait or to operate. Fortunately, Ben decided to abandon the alternative, deciding to wait until the gadget comes out naturally. And did not lose.
How much the continuation of the story is true is difficult to verify. However, Hsu assures that the earpiece got out of the abdomen naturally with a charge of 41%.
Recall that officially AirPods headphones do not have a certificate of protection class, that is, they are not protected even from splashes. Probably in practice are more durable. What can I say - thanks to Ben for the most unusual test of gadgets in the world.
