First released in 2016, Apple's AirPods are widely regarded
as one of the company's best products in recent years, and the AirPods offer
great battery life, portability, simple charging, easy connectivity, and a
range of Unmatched Bluetooth.
AirPods are so popular that Apple still has trouble keeping
them in stock sometimes, and two years after launch, it's not uncommon to see a
lot of AirPods on the street, in movies, on TV shows, and anywhere else you
look .
If you're new to AirPods, considering buying a pair, or just
wanting to get some new tips, this guide is for you.
What are
AirPods?
The AirPods are Apple's completely wire-free headphones,
which look a bit like Apple EarPods from older devices, but without the wires.
AirPods have Apple-designed technology inside them, such as a special wireless
chip called the W1 or H1 (depending on version), an accelerometer for gestures,
dual optical sensors, dual-beam forming microphones for Siri and phone calls,
and a second accelerometer for voice detection.
The AirPods come with the AirPods charging bubble
milk tea airpod case, which is used for both charging and storage, so the
AirPods don't get lost. The charging case is about the size of a dental floss
container, so it can be easily stored in your pocket. A Lightning port at the
bottom allows the AirPods and the case to be charged with the Lightning cables
you already have on hand, and the wireless charging snorlax
airpod case allows you to charge with a Qi wireless charger.
What devices
are compatible with AirPods?
AirPods work with all iPhone, iPad and iPod touch models
running iOS 10 or later. This includes iPhone 5 and newer, iPad mini 2 and
newer, iPad fourth generation and newer, iPad Air models, all iPad Pro
models, and the sixth generation iPod touch.
AirPods work with all Apple Watch models running watchOS 3
or later, which includes the original Apple Watch and all later versions of
Apple Watch.
AirPods also work with all Mac models running macOS Sierra
or later, including the late 2009 or newer MacBook, the mid-2010 or newer
MacBook Pro, the late 2010 or newer MacBook Air, Mac mini from mid-2010 or
newer, latest -2009 or newer iMac, or Mac Pro from mid-2010 or newer.
With the iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad and Mac models listed
above, all AirPods features are available. You can pair AirPods with other
non-Apple devices, you just won't be able to take advantage of all the bells
and whistles.
If you have second-generation AirPods and are using them
with an Apple device, you must have iOS 12.2, watchOS 5.2, or macOS 10.14.4 or
later installed.
