Do I need my AirPods case nearby to use the AirPods?

Ordered AirPods, and I'm wondering if I'll be able to use them without the case being nearby. Like taking them for a run while the case is at home.

The case is only necessary for initial pairing and charging.


Once they are paired the case does not need to be near the AirPods or the device they are paired with at all.
