Wireless headphones.
Finally untangled.
After a simple one-tap setup, AirPods are automatically on and always connected. Using them is just as easy. They can sense when they're in your ears and pause when you take them out. And the AirPods experience is just as amazing whether you're listening to your iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad or Mac.
Tap into Siri.
Talking to your favourite personal assistant is a cinch. Just double-tap either AirPod to activate Siri, without taking your iPhone out of your pocket.
What's a chip doing in there? A whole lot.
All the groundbreaking things AirPods can do are driven by the custom-designed Apple W1 chip. It produces extremely efficient wireless for a better connection and improved sound. And the W1 chip manages battery life so well, you can listen for 5 hours on a single charge. It's performance that's unheard of in a device this small.
Knows when you're talking.
A voice accelerometer recognises when you're speaking and works with a pair of beamforming microphones to filter out external noise and focus on the sound of your voice.
Knows when you're listening.
Optical sensors and motion accelerometers work with the W1 chip to automatically control the audio and engage the microphone, giving you the ability to use one or both AirPods. They also enable AirPods to play sound as soon as they're in your ears.
The power of 24 hour battery life.
AirPods deliver an industry-leading 5 hours of listening time on one charge. And they're made to keep up with you, thanks to a charging case that holds multiple additional charges for more than 24 hours of listening time. Need a quick charge? Just 15 minutes in the case gives you 3 hours of listening time. To check the battery, hold the AirPods next to your iPhone or ask Siri "How's the battery on my AirPods?"
Clearly superior sound.
It's great-sounding music, movies and more to your ears. AirPods provide rich, high-quality AAC audio. And when you want to be heard, dual beamforming microphones filter out background noise when you make calls or talk to Siri.
Automatic setup. Seamless switching.
AirPods connect automatically with all your Apple devices. They're simultaneously connected to your iPhone and Apple Watch, and sound switches instantly between the devices. Want to listen to your Mac or iPad? Just choose AirPods on those devices.

Thank you.

It wasn't just an opinion you expressed though, you also cold voted a fantastic offer price.
And until you have tried them, your opinion is worthless.

AirPods are great and well worth £150 I paid for them. HEAT!

Best piece of tech in years, great price, I LOVE mine.
They have been out for over a year, and nobody has come close to making a truly competing product, FACT.

The B&O E8 out this week compete pretty hard, I'd say.
ezzer72 to johnthehuman
10 Oct 17#12
Okay, they took a whole year to catch up though.
Also they are twice the price, the case holds half as much charge and I doubt they are as 'clever'.
johnthehuman to ezzer72
10 Oct 17#19
As clever? The E8 has decent sealing and Transparency Mode, which lets you hear "the outside" without taking them out.
It interacts with Siri and Google Assistant. What do the Airbuds do that is so advanced? Make you tea?
ezzer72 to johnthehuman
10 Oct 17#21
You forgot to mention the price and charge capacity with your comeback.
I'm talking about the way they automatically connect, pause the sound as soon as you remove from your ear etc.
That transparency mode sounds like typical marketing BS.
Highly unlikely you will be buying either anyway, but well done on your efforts.

I've pre-ordered the E8's, they're due to arrive on Thursday :thinking: why is it unlikely I'd buy them? Hmm. Transparency mode just means they use the mics to let you hear external noise without removing them. Not BS, I'll use them quite a lot in the office.
Re: charging capacity, they both say the buds themselves get 4-5 hours on a charge, with the case adding two more charges on the E8. I'll never use them for 12 hours without being near a usb socket for a boost, so it's not really relevant to me.

Hmm I'd dispute that with the Sony wf1000xn. Stay in your ears (don't get on with airpods), more bass, noise cancellation.
But have voted hot for price of airpods, I know a lot of people love them.

As before though mate, more expensive and paltry by comparison battery tech - this is a pretty important factor in a wireless product.
daBluone to ezzer72
10 Oct 17#45
OK but I'd argue better build quality, better sound quality and noise cancellation with the Sony's.
By comparison the Airpods are horrible shiney/greasy white plastic which makes them look cheap. They don't stay in my ears securely. The sound is not great imo and offer zero noise isolation.

The new one with wireless charging case is coming
ezzer72 to rambits
10 Oct 17#13
This is true, but there is no real benefit - the case needs charging so infrequently it's no biggie to plug it in.

£50 extra for the wireless charging case, apart from that its the exact same model.

Nice price but still too expensive for me, got a pair of the £16 anker Bluetooth headphones off here and they do the same job at the end of the day and sound fantastic

I've had 2 pairs of sounpeat q's that I've found fantastic. I was in the US last week so decided to try the airpods as they were coming in at £128. Was very sceptical, think they look daft but thought try it.
I love them. Absolutely fantastic and brilliant tech. I'm keeping my latest soundpeats as well but find the airpods superb.
