This product really gives a good first impression.
- No trouble at all connecting like other Bluetooth devices where you kinda have to brace yourself to deal with trouble connecting
- The battery life is great too: you can go for around 2 days without charging.
- But the sound quality wasn’t like ~great. It’s just like the regular EarPods. No bass, no pop, just mediocre sound quality
But the more you use it, you’ll find more trouble: especially with the auto-connect feature
- I like to watch youtube on my iPad while I’m watching lectures or on a Zoom call.
- And these Air Pods really struggle with, which devices am I gonna connect to.
- It’s kinda annoying to have to manually switch between devices (and it lagged too)
- I think this is kinda short-sighted of Apple since it’s pretty clear that their users are likely to have an ecosystem of Apple products already and like to use them simultaneously.
2nd problem: you don’t know if it’s connected or not
- This has happened a couple of times: when I have my laptop and iPad, both devices will show that the AirPods are connected.
- But it’s a guessing game of which audio it’s gonna play.
- So many times when my laptop just plays the audio out loud and I have no idea.
- There’s no way for me to check if the audio if from my mac or is it from my earbuds.
Overall: It's pretty affordable Apple wireless earbuds in comparison to other models. So if you're on a budget and dying to have decent wireless earbuds, go for it. I would not recommend it if you're looking for really good sound quality and noise-canceling earbuds.

Authentic and Beautiful, Love these way more than ever expected
Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2019
These AirPods are amazing they automatically play audio as soon as you put them in your ears and pause when you take them out. A simple double-tap during music listening will skip forward. To adjust the volume, change the song, make a call, or even get directions, just say "Hey Siri" to activate your favorite personal assistant. Plus, when you're on a call or talking to Siri, an additional accelerometer works with dual beamforming microphones to filter out background noise and ensure that your voice is transmitted with clarity and consistency.Additionally, they deliver five hours of listening time on a single 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. Just 15 minutes in the case gives you three hours of listening to time or up to two hours of talk time.I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to buy

Best Price Around For Second Generation Airpods!

Best Price Around For Second Generation Airpods!
Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on December 4, 2020
First off, Airpods are great. Seamless connection, great sound quality, compact and high quality design you always receive from apple.Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on December 4, 2020
However, I was very nervous to buy on Amazon. Many reviews stated these were generation 1 airpods which came out in 2016. In the product description it did state the second generation model number MV7N2AM/A and with amazon's amazing return policy I decided that it was the risk to buy and if the 1st generation did show up, I could easily return and purchase somewhere else. Thankfully, after checking serial numbers on both the box and after the airpods were connected through my phone I can confirm these are authentic, second generation airpods. Based off others reviews that they received generation 1 airpods, I can't 100% guarantee you will get 2nd generation airpods, buit it seems like they've stopped sending out the old pairs at this point.

Então, vamos de sinceridades, esse anúncio contém uma leve dubiedade, ao meu humilde ver, prefiro crer que sem intenção.Reviewed in Brazil 🇧🇷 on March 18, 2021
Pedi o fone, tal como a maioria dos compradores de internet, após muita pesquisa, e fui no preço que tava melhor, leia-se inclusive, pouca coisa melhor ok?
Feito isso, recebi, produto na caixa, embalado, lacrado, original, perfeito e maravilhoso, tudo em ordem.
O entretanto vem no anúncio, o título “AirPods 2...” deveria vir acompanhado de ESTOJO PRIMEIRA GERAÇÃO, pois existe uma clara, e prática diferença técnica. O estojo do AirPods 2 funciona tal qual o Apple Watch, carrega por indução, já o do AirPods 1, via cabo...
Pois é, chato né? Comprei um AirPods 2, em que pese, quase 1100 reais, e recebi o estojo do AirPods 1, funciona? Sim, funciona, altera minha vida, na prática? Não, não altera... Mas agride diretamente a imagem que a empresa transpassa ao cliente, se fosse em uma loja física, jamais teria levado.
A questão aqui fica em torno da expectativa pela compra, desde o momento onde decidi comprar, consegui recurso pra isso, ainda mais em plena crise econômica, passados alguns dias, acompanha-se a entrega alimentando mais ainda a ansiedade pelo produto...
Foi um banho de água fria, mas pior ainda é o trabalho que daria fazer uma devolução, reembolso, ou mandar o estojo pra receber outro.
Fica EXPRESSA E CLARA, minha crítica, e que seja construtiva, fui super bem atendido, no que pesa o trato humano, mas na hora de tirar o 10, vocês erraram feio, ficam com o 8.

Faux Apple à surveiller!
Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on December 25, 2020
Reçu une paire dans une vraie boîte Apple, mais avec des écouteurs qui sont clairement des faux. L'étui n'entre pas dans la boîte d'origine et les écouteurs ne chargent pas. Batterie à 10% après 24h de charge. Plusieurs différences avec des vrais, mais en vérifiant comme il faut. À surveiller!
