Different products have different engineering trade-offs. It's a miracle.
If you look at
the teardown, that's easily answered: because the Galaxy S10 doesn't have a similarly beefy haptics engine.
Now you'll say "well that's a stupid feature anyway; a headphone jack would be far more useful". And that's sad indeed, because you're held at gunpoint and forced to buy an iPhone!

So, again, just to be clear, you think a significant amount of people bought AirPods primarily because they had no headphone jack, even though their phones came with identically-designed (but wired) earplugs?
