What’s even cooler is that those AirPods are now connected to every other iPad, MacBook and Apple Watch signed in with your iCloud account. I opened up my MacBook and there they were, sitting in the Bluetooth menu. Range is excellent too, and audio never seems to drop, which isn’t something you can say about Bluetooth which as a technology is prone to momentary drops and digital blips. There are a bunch of accelerometers inside, too, just like an iPhone.
These know when you put the AirPods in and start the music, and they pause when you remove one. You can keep one bud in the case and all audio will be routed through the one in your ear. Tap on the centre and Siri will pop up too, but due to Siri still being mostly rubbish I can’t say I use this feature much. Apple’s voice-assistant is still too slow and misunderstands me too often to make it worthwhile to stick with, and having it be the only way to skip tracks and alter the volume without reaching for my phone is annoying. I would like some virtual controls on the buds, but we’ll have to wait for version 2 for that.

They are not exclusively for iPhones and iOS either, with Android support being decent if not quite as good. You won’t benefit from the easy setup, or Siri integration, but the connection is still rock-solid and battery life just as good. Apple AirPods – Battery life and charging case While audio quality isn’t one of the Apple AirPods’ best attributes, battery life certainly is. Apple’s claim of five hours worth of juice per charge for the buds is almost bang on, though this does drop a bit if you’re on the phone a lot. Five hours might not seem that impressive, but you’ve got to take into account the included charging case can fully charge the AirPods about five times.

This gives you around 24 hours when all’s said and done, which is quite a lot better than the competition. Motorola’s Verveones+, a similar set of wireless buds, are more expensive and offer just 12 hours of playback when you’re using the charging case. It’s a similar story with the Sol Republic Amp Airs, which lasted about 2.5-3 hours in our tests. Once the case is dead, plug in a Lightning cable and it’ll juice back up. It’s all very seamless.

A 15 minute charge in the case also gives you a good few hours of listening, so it’s actually quite difficult to be without charge. Why buy Apple AirPods? Many, including me, instantly dismissed Apple’s first foray into wireless earphones almost immediately after they were announced.
But they are, in fact, one of the best pairs of completely wireless earbuds available. They’re cheaper and better sounding than Motorola’s VerveOne Plus, better looking than Sol Republic’s Amp Airs and have a stronger, more reliable Bluetooth connection than pretty much every other pair of wireless headphones. Sound quality might not be on par with the price-tag, and some will still bash the design, but I think the complete package wins out. Yet, in the end, I can’t forgive the design for not comfortably fitting in a wide range of ear types – so make sure you try before you buy – nor can I overlook the lack of any controls beyond Siri.
