Had my eye on these when they were first announced, but was an eye watering price of $299.
Sport headphones with active noise cancellation, they use Apple's Lighting connector only so they don't need a separate power source and can draw power from the phone.
So yes, for Apple Devices only (so those that always whine when an Apple deal is posted "why pay so much for a phone…I have a cup and a string and it works fine" need not apply!)
For $49 I gave them a shot, did a 10km run with them and they worked great, far better sound than my PowerBeats 3 (my reining best pick for sports headphones) and I would sacrifice bluetooth for better sound and active noise cancellation. Good fit in my ears (which is rare) and a range of tips just in case.
Red, Blue and Teal $49, Black is $99 (which is technically still a bargain, just not a bargain enough!), free next day shipping on all colours.
