   Love these!

   I had been wanting AirPods for awhile and decided to just order some before a trip. I am so impressed!! I hardly ever need to charge them as the charge holds for so long. I am also impressed with the features these have (touching them or double tapping them while wearing them to pause, being able to take one out and your show/music will automatically pause as it knows you took one out.. etc) they also don’t hurt my ears like other headphones tend to do.

   100% honest review

   Taking the Apple AirPods at face value, they’re a solid headset for the money! If you already have the original, first generation AirPods and just want to upgrade, not a bad option either. The 2nd generation AirPods feature an improved software chip & runs off of BlueTooth 5.0 vs 4.1 (Gen 1). The software chip allows a faster, stronger, and more stable connection with your device(s). This particular item for $139.00 does NOT feature the wireless charging case. This one must be plugged in via USB (cable provided in the box) to an outlet or USB port. The wireless charging case model is $169. Now if you’re looking to upgrade to the wireless charging case later on, you can. Apple does sell it separately. If you want the wireless charging option right out of the box, I recommend sending the $169 vs the $139 product here.Sound quality: Straight out of the box, sound is pretty solid. No crackles, static, pops, or any abnormal noises created by the more economic-friendly headsets. You have a lot more adjustability & tuning capabilities if paired on an iOS/Apple device vs using for example paired with an Android OS device. So, ultimately Apple users may or may not get a better sound quality experience.Noise cancellation: AirPods do fit fairly well in the ear without having to be jammed inside your ear canal. Generally they create a snug fit using Apple’s “universal” earphone design, it is one size fits most not one size fits all. Some users have upgraded or opted to spend the additional funds on a set of AirPods Pro due to the rubber tips for a better/snug fit. I believe only the AirPods Pro currently has an active noise cancellation utilizing two microphones but I would double-check Apple for accurate information. Also, for Android users. The Galaxy buds by Samsung feature active noise cancellation & wireless charging case on every model so you might want to look into that product before making a final purchase.Battery life: For optimal battery life, I highly recommend charging both AirPods inside the case. The case itself is a battery pack with a life. So if one or both AirPods are low on battery, you can toss them in the case and charge them up. Apple I believe rates 5 minutes of charging time is equivalent to 1 hour of talk/listening time and 15 minutes of charging time is equivalent to 2 hours of talk/listening. I’m sure this is accurate when they’re brand new but I’m sure like anything, normal ware & tare might diminish that over time.Warranty: Apple provides a 1-year standard manufacturer’s warranty on this product. This ONLY covers defects/defaults from the manufacturer. This will NOT cover physical and/or liquid damages to AirPods, case, or charging cable included.AppleCare: It’s $29.00 and 2 years and well worth the extra money. You’re already spending this kind of money on a headset, may as well have protection. We get it, accidents happen! But protect yourself and get your AirPods repaired/replaced at no additional cost to YOU! There is no additional fees or deductibles involved.AppleCare tips:You don’t have to install AppleCare right away. You have 60 days from the original purchase date to contact Apple by providing your AirPods serial number (on outside of the box) and Apple will tell you if you’re still eligible.You can renew AppleCare for another 2 years for the same fee of $29.00 provided you want to keep the same product. If you decide to upgrade to the AirPods Pro or whatever the latest model is, you would have to purchase AppleCare for that specific product.You can go into an Apple store location and get live repair/replacement on your AirPods.Using AirPods with Android:Apple has allowed Android and other non-iOS devices to use AirPods since the AirPods pair/connect via BlueTooth.If you’re using AirPods on an Android platform such as Samsung or LG for example there’s 2 ways to pair the headset to your device. You either turn on BlueTooth on your device, pop both AirPods inside your ear, find “AirPods” under available connections, and connect. Or you might have to pair manually using the button on the AirPods case to make available, pair, and connect.FAIR WARNING:You will NOT have access to all features that the AirPods have to offer on an Apple/iOS device. You will be limited on functions you can perform.I was able to find an app on Google play store for $1.99 called “AirPopUp”. It is a paid application that unlock access to certain/more features of the AirPods similar to what an Apple/iOS device would be granted. Be aware that you will NOT have access nor the ability to have every single feature since you’re not on Apple’s network. There may be other apps (most likely paid applications) you’d have to find that may unlock more features such as: AirPods battery life percentage, case battery life percentage, programming LEFT & RIGHT AirPods for certain function(s), skipping/pausing/resetting songs, answer/decline/hang up phone calls, find my AirPods, and more.For Samsung users specifically, you might want to look into the Galaxy Buds. They’re a little cheaper than AirPods, I believe Amazon has them for $109.99 + $22 3-Year insurance through Assurion that does cover physical/liquid/accidental damage just like AirPods.Galaxy Buds features:Made by SamsungAudio powered by AKGRubber ear bud tipsPair with Samsung device to get the mostWireless charging caseActive noise cancellationComes in multiple colors (black/white/silver/yellow/red & black combo with Star Wars edition Galaxy Note 10+)Includes changing cord and replacement rubber earbud tips.I know if you pair the Galaxy Buds with a Samsung device it will automatically download an application titled “Galaxy Wearable”. This allows users to check battery life status of the case and each bud, prompts you for software updates, ability to program LEFT & RIGHT earbuds to do certain function(s), answer/decline/hang up phone calls, pause/skip/reset songs.Apple may charge a lot of money for their products on accessories but they never fall short of being a revolutionary, well-designed, reliable product that works as advertised.

   Best earbuds for the price

   Apple consistently produces top flight gear and the Airpod is no exception. Excellent fit, exceptional sound quality, and very durable. I’ve used them on long runs and have doused them in sweat and on multiple occasions dropped them at a dead run onto concrete and various other surfaces. They’ve never failed to deliver quality sound. Battery life is good, but I never get the 4-5 hours of life they advertise. I usually get between 3 to 4. Cleaning is, of course, problematic. There are several good videos out there to assist with this. The price tag is steep, but you can pay a lot more for other brands with no noticeable difference in quality. Definitely the most bang for the buck.

   Impressive wireless audio Experience!

   I’ve been using the Apple AirPods 2nd Generation for a few weeks now, and I’m absolutely blown away by their performance. The wireless connection is rock solid, and the sound quality is fantastic. Whether I’m listening to music, watching videos, or taking calls, the audio is clear and crisp, with just the right amount of bass.The convenience of the wireless design cannot be overstated. It’s liberating to move around without any cords getting in the way, and the AirPods stay comfortably in my ears, even during workouts. The lightning charging case is a great addition – it keeps my AirPods protected and provides multiple charges on the go. Setup was a breeze; they connected seamlessly to my iPhone as soon as I opened the case.The touch controls are intuitive and responsive. I can pause/play, skip tracks, and even activate Siri with a simple tap. Speaking of Siri, the voice recognition is surprisingly accurate, making it easy to make calls and send messages hands-free.Battery life is solid; I can easily get through a day of use without needing to recharge the case. The seamless integration with the Apple ecosystem is a huge plus – I can switch between devices effortlessly, and the automatic pausing when I remove an AirPod is a small but brilliant feature.While they might seem a bit pricey, the Apple AirPods 2nd Generation are worth every penny for the audio quality, convenience, and overall user experience they provide. If you’re looking for top-notch wireless earbuds, these are definitely worth considering!
