Apple's new wireless earbuds offer up to 5 hours of battery life and will be available in late October for $159.
Apple believes the future is wireless. Their AirPods are a great example of that. The bluetooth connection is strong within 45 - 50 feet. AirPods sense when they’re in your ear and automatically stop playing when removed.
AirPods: fully wireless earbuds that launched with iPhone 7. The hype is over... are they any good?
Apple's AirPods are finally here. The wireless earbuds are a lot like Apple's wired EarPods with the wires cut off, and they cost $159.
If you had trouble keeping EarPods in your ears, you can expect the same from AirPods. But if they fit, you can count on great battery life, good sound, and a few smart features.
Apple might have larger plans in store for future AirPods beyond water resistance. Bloomberg sources claim that a higher-end version of the totally wireless earbuds could arrive "as early as" 2019 with noise cancellation and longer wireless range in addition to protection against rain and sweat. There's no mention of whether or not there would be an audio quality boost at the same time, but you at least wouldn't have to endure unwanted noises from the outside world. It's safe to presume they'd cost more than the existing $159.
AirPods 2 were recently released by Apple. The new AirPods for 2019 feature improved performance, better battery life for talk time and a wireless charge case. The wireless charge case is also available independently and will work with either AirPods 2 or the original AirPods. Are AirPods 2 worth the upgrade?
Apple’s AirPods 2 look and sound very familiar to the first-gen version, but the biggest change is the ability to wirelessly charge the case. The wireless charging case uses the Qi standard — just like the iPhone and countless Android phones on the market — so you can use the same charging pad as your phone to charge your AirPods case. Another important change – the new H1 chip that replaces the W1 chip of the first model and enables hands-free Siri access.
While the new AirPods may not be a major upgrade, the changes do improve an already excellent and truly wireless headphone.
AirPods Pro are finally noise cancelling earbuds. For $250. From Apple.
Earlier today, I popped in a set of Apple AirPods, jumped onto an uptown 6 train, and began a short journey to our New York office. That would be a pretty apt description of any of my daily commutes to work, but today was different: Because I was using the new AirPods Pro, I didn't have to dial up the volume dangerously high to hear my music over the din.
Apple's new, $249 wireless earbuds hit stores tomorrow, and they're a big improvement over the models we've already gotten used to. As you probably guessed, we're putting together a full, comprehensive review we'll publish later on, but the AirPods Pro have made a strong enough impression that I had to share a few thoughts now.
Apple's new AirPods Pro are an answer to an aggressively growing true wireless earphones market in which it was, technologically speaking, getting left behind. Sure, AirPod sales are strong -- you see them everywhere on the street -- but they were never particularly great. So, are the AirPod Pro a real contender? You may be surprised by what I have to say in my hands on review.
Apple’s AirPods Pro have a new in-ear design that will fit many more people, and they can quiet your surroundings with active noise cancellation. They’re more expensive than regular AirPods at $250, but they’re almost the perfect true wireless earbuds — if you have an iPhone.
The Airpods Pro might not seem like a drastic change from the originals -- is noise cancellation enough to warrant the "Pro" name?
Unboxing the new Apple AirPods Pro and comparing them to the standard AirPods (AirPods 2). AirPods have been a major hit for Apple, will the AirPods Pro live up to the name?
