So i refuse to pay that airpod price but have a question about the earbud. So i had em in n my phone wrang n it announced who it was. Than i get a text n nuttin is announced but when i hit siri to read it it says unlock phone. Does that feature not work with earbuds id assume? I mean i have a apple watch which tells me who is textn but was curious. Thanks

Greetings Ramsfan010,
It sounds as though you’re asking about the Announce Calls feature, and if it’s compatible with the EarPods that came with your iPhone. Apple Support Communities is a great place for help!
Announce calls is only available on supported headphones and CarPlay. The headphones that support this feature would be AirPods Max, AirPods Pro, AirPods (2nd generation), and Powerbeats Pro. This information can also be found in the following article.
