Nope, no lightning ports here. Bluetooth or USB-C

I would not recommend any AAC only headphones to Android. Only Apple music can use AAC codec. Also there is no value for money at all. For same or less money you have much better headphones with Aptx codec and can enjoy much better sound quality (eg via Tidal HiFi)

Android O supports AAC

Do you mean Airpods? Because they work very well.
Especially with AirBattery on the Play Store

But there is no way to get gestures to work on Android, right?

From what I've read you can't do it on Android but if you connect them to an iOS device you can change the settings and they will work on android as well.

I bought a pair of Airpods specifically for my Pixel 2xl and have had zero problems with them. I do have an iPad that I used to set up gestures and I use AssistantTrigger to add a gesture for launching Assistant, which works quite well. You may be able to set the gesture commands from that app now, even without an iPhone/iPad. From all the reviews and real world useage I saw, they were just the best quality and bang for my buck. I use them every day and like I mentioned before, have had no problems with them.

Edit: after looking at the AssistantTrigger app, I was wrong, I don't think you can set up the commands from the app.
