With the newly launched iPhone 7 series ditching the traditional 3.5mm audio jack, Apple has introduced a new device to compliment the loss. The AirPods as named, is the wireless version of the predominant earpods which disappointingly won’t work with the new iPhone 7.
When we first heard the name “AirPods” what first comes to our mind is the copter Tom Cruise used in Oblivion, remember? It’s like Apple stole the name and part of its design if looked closely, the latest piece-of-art and the beauty of technology.

The tiny wireless earpiece definitely looked sleek enough to convince patriotic Apple fans out there to lay down their wired earphones, but how much it will perform and the quality of sounds that will be pushed out through the tiny speakers are still questioned.
If the old (but gold) plug-and-play audio jack indeed missed its place to make the iPhone 7 to be invisible in water, the AirPods should atleast compliment this by being fully waterproof, but again we have no details regarding this. The device will not only work on iPhone, but with iPad, MacBook, Apple Watch and iMac as well.
The earbuds used Apple newly invented “W1” chip to connect with the aforementioned devices using Bluetooth connection. When paired, users can control music i.e increase/lower volume, play, pause, next and even receive phone calls by lightly tapping two optical buttons located at the side, which will activate Siri to listen to the user command.
The AirPods is even made easy to use with sensors (including Accelerometer) preloaded. For instance, it will automatically start playing audio when inserted into the ear, while removing it from the ear will auto pause the current playlist. Also, taking it out of its casing auto activate it and putting it back turns it off.
The AirPods battery have estimated run time of five hours, but the bundled case holds an additional charge that can render up to 24 hours of battery life.
