Great when you need to listen music and your environment. Let’s first start off with noise cancellation: It’s non-existent. You WILL hear everything going on around you, with turning the volume up just damaging your ears. This is due to the AirPod kind of laying inside your ear, which doesn’t create a seal as in earbuds with silicone tips. This not only kills any noise cancellation, but will cause sound to bleed to the outside when loud enough (say around 50%).The issues above are also benefits in environments like offices or schools. This is thanks to the lack of noise cancellation. With music playing, talking to someone sounds just the same as without them. In addition, without a seal being created in your ear, they have to be louder than usual, which they certainly are (Not by a huge margin, but a noticeable one). Now for the stem of the AirPods, they aren’t just for show. The microphones in the stem help make calls sound clear and usable.The shape of the AirPods are a hit-or-miss. They’ll either fit you or they won’t. The best way you could test this is by trying on some EarPods, as they are pretty much AirPods with wires (design-wise). For me, they fit my ears, but start to slip off on their own. They don’t fall, but they give me the sensation that they will. You can fix this with some rubber hooks that go on the AirPods to hold them in place inside your ears (You’ll need to remove them when putting them back in their case though).The battery life is…fine. It’s not abysmal and will last you a good while, but it’s not anything to write home about. At least the pop-up when opening the case will remind you of charging them (On an iPhone, I don’t think it’ll do this on Android). It charges via lightning, but there is a version available with a wireless charging case if you’d like.Sound quality is good, but not perfect. Bass is not it’s strong point, and some instruments do get muffled out on some tracks. Vocals can be heard well (which helps out on calls) though. Disclaimer: I’m not an audiophile, just a guy that listens to music for hours.Initial pairing is relatively simple on an iPhone/Mac, just open them while being close to your intended device. The AirPods connect nearly instant when taking them out of the case. While I can’t speak for Android or Windows devices, I would assume that they would pair the same way as any other devices, but don’t take my word for it.Also, there is no official water/sweat resistance to them. I haven’t used them in these environments, but have heard stories of them surviving washing machines (Which I will not be testing). Take that with a grain of salt though.Overall, they are great earphones for me, but make sure you know what you need of your earphones first. If you make a lot of calls and want to hear everything around you, these are the ones to go for.
Unparalleled Convenience and Sound Quality – Apple AirPods Are a Game Changer. The Apple AirPods (2nd Generation) have been a total game-changer for my daily life! As a long-time Apple user, I finally decided to invest in these wireless earbuds, and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase.First and foremost, the convenience they offer is unparalleled. The seamless pairing process with my iPhone was effortless, and they automatically connect as soon as I place them in my ears. I love the way the music automatically pauses when I remove one AirPod, and resumes as soon as I put it back in. It’s such a small detail, but it makes a world of difference in my listening experience.The sound quality of these AirPods is fantastic. The audio is clear, crisp, and surprisingly rich, even in bass-heavy tracks. I’m genuinely impressed by how well they deliver music, podcasts, and calls, providing an immersive experience whether I’m working out or simply commuting.The wireless design is another aspect that I adore. The freedom of not having to deal with tangled wires or constantly readjusting earbuds during a workout is liberating. They fit comfortably and securely in my ears, even during intense activities, and I’ve never experienced any discomfort.The battery life is excellent as well. With the included charging case, I can easily extend the playtime throughout the day without worrying about running out of power. The case itself charges quickly, making it ready for use whenever I need it.As someone who frequently uses Siri on my iPhone, the seamless integration with these AirPods is a huge plus. The hands-free access to Siri is incredibly convenient for changing tracks, adjusting volume, or simply answering calls without reaching for my phone.I also appreciate the lightning charging feature. It aligns perfectly with my other Apple devices, and it’s one less cable to worry about when traveling or charging on the go.One minor downside is that the AirPods are relatively expensive compared to other wireless earbuds on the market. However, the quality, performance, and user experience justify the investment for me.In conclusion, the Apple AirPods (2nd Generation) have exceeded my expectations in every way. The seamless connectivity, top-notch sound quality, comfortable fit, and convenient features make them an indispensable accessory for any Apple user. While they may be on the pricier side, I believe they are worth every penny for the unmatched experience they provide. I highly recommend these wireless earbuds to anyone looking for a superior listening experience and ultimate convenience on a daily basis!
Reliable and good sound. Have had this set for almost 4 years. Usually get 2-3 years from a set before one of the pods starts loosing significant battery capacity and can’t get thru a meeting.seems pretty reasonable given the small batteries and heavy usage over several years.Ordering another set today to replace these and will be happy with another couple years use. They work every time, sound good, have no connection issues.Recently thought I’d branch out and try the lower price point Anker p40 and the a40. Both sets had issues, failed connections, poor sound quality variably and the one set eventually stayed phone connected even when in the case and out of range. Just didn’t work reliably for day to day work uses.Really wanted to like the ankers, but so far nothing works as well as the Apple air pods. Also have had some Apple gen3s which were great, but since I can’t tell a difference, will stick with the cheaper gen2 sets.
Great buds. Finally had to replace my buds I’ve had for years just wouldn’t last long anymore on charge. But used them daily for years reason I bought them again also great sound and good value and quality. Just as good as my wife’s over $200 buds.
Best in sound. The quality is great cause it’s Apple made. It fits good in my ear and has great connectivity. The fact that I don’t like about this model is they don’t have noise cancellations.
Good pair of ear buds. Glad I broke down and bought a pair! Really love them and the fit of the ear is very comfortable. Like the quick connection and stable battery life. Worth the price!
Works perfectly. Got this a gift and it works perfectly. Came in the original apply box. Easy to pair. Great quality overall.
