Apple Airpods Review: Are they any good?
If you're looking to just listen to music, the Airpods are a good choice since the connection never drops. Just don't expect to get a great sound experience and be prepared to lose at least one.- Great connection
- Really portable
- Not the best fit
- Sound isn't great
Adorama offered the product when many others didn't, and beat their proposed deadline for shipment by nearly three weeks. Shipping was fast and accurate. Highly recommend.
They're not cheap and battery life is only passable, but the Apple AirPods offer good audio and the convenience of no wires, Siri support and other handy features.
Apple AirPods review: Great audio for Siri?lovers
Apple AirPods might be the pinnacle of wireless technology, but for me they will be a pair of great earphones first.- Apple AirPods might be the pinnacle of wireless technology, but for me they will be a pair of great earphones first
- In fact, I would not have really cared if the audio quality was a notch below where it is now, even for the sake of cutting edge technology.
- We spoke about the design and how the AirPods stayed on
- However, I have an issue wearing these where I am more visible
- The one day I ventured out to a public park, there were stares and muted comments.
The AirPods look stupid. There, I said it. They look like someone played a prank on you by snapping off the wires from your pair of EarPods that come with the iPhone, and the stalks just hanging out from the ears are a bit disturbing to look at. The design just feels wrong and incomplete.
Apple AirPods review: better than previous iterations, but still a letdown
The AirPods are a vast improvement on previous audio products from Apple, but they're far from perfect- Sleek carry case
- improved sound and fit compared to previous models
- Features are lacking compared to rivals
- fiddly to use
Awesome airpods
I love this one apple product, with out any wire we can carry and no body can check...thanks to infi guys..
Apple AirPods Review
The Apple AirPods are definitely one of the most convenient headphones we have tested. They are true wireless headphones – no cable or cord connects them and they stream music via Bluetooth. The fit is comfortable and surprisingly secure.- Super convenient
- Comfortable and surprisingly secure fit
- Easy setup and integration with other Apple devices
- 15 minute quick charge feature
- Expensive
- Not a fan of the volume controls and track management – must use Siri for everything
- No native music storage
When Apple announced its new wireless earphones at the iPhone 7 launch (sans headphone jack), people had a lot to say about it, and not all good. The AirPods were being mocked before they went on sale mostly due to the way it looked, considering its price.
Apple AirPods review: we love them, but people keep looking at us
So what do we think of Apple's latest creation? In short, we love the AirPods. They are technically brilliant and we're big fans of how well they work with iOS (we wouldn't bother if you use Android). The sound quality is also superb. However, there is one big drawback and that's their appearance.- They work brilliantly
- Unobtrusive
- So easy to pair
- They look a bit weird
- Easy to lose one
- Case needs to be less slippy
