These AirPods are fantastic best ever Ear pods I have ever used when they first came out thought they looked odd and cost a lot ...but because of QVC Easy Pays Plus Reading all reviews on line plus YouTube ones decided to try them and I am one Happy Customer these are fantastic best ones I have...

If you had indeed noticed, you would probably have realized that most of Apple's latest line-up of products don't exactly look too different from the predecessors. The iPhone XS compared to the iPhone X. The iPad Mini compared to the old iPad Mini. The new iMacs compared with the ones they succeed.

At $199, the Apple AirPods 2 won't cost you too much when compared to other True Wireless options out there. But that's probably the best thing about this earphone, because, apart from battery life in relation to talk time, they generally suck.

While new features like wireless charging and faster pairing are useful, the AirPods (2019) aren't a significant improvement over their predecessors, so while they're well worth a look if you're buying your first pair of true-wireless buds, if you have the original AirPods it's hard for us to...

Faster pairing; Wireless charging; Hands-free ‘Hey Siri' functionality

Wireless charging case costs extra; Audio hasn't improved; Identical design to the originals

There's no denying the popularity of the Apple AirPods, or their impact on the truly wireless earphones segment. This now-ubiquitous fit style was popularised by the original Apple AirPods, which were launched in late 2016, and they are a useful accessory for anyone who owns an Apple iPhone.

Light; familiar fit; Pleasing audio quality; Useful gestures; Siri voice activation; Very good battery life

Somewhat weak bass; No passive isolation; Not a big update over first-gen AirPods

The look and feel are the same. With the new AirPods, the big differences are all on the inside.

I think the AirPods offer one of the most convenient and unobtrusive ways to listen to music with Bluetooth earbuds – they just work. Yes, there are many other cheaper truly wireless earbuds out there, but the AirPods have set a standard for the experience that truly wireless earbuds should offer.
