Part 1: Airpods 2 Appearance
Airpods Charging Box:
The AirPods charging box is small,sleek and simple, the metal hinges are very simple to open and close. They areas an exquisite cobblestone in your hand.
There is no extra port design in addition to the matching button on the back and the Lighting charging interface on the bottom. Weighing only 38 grams (without AirPods), it is especially convenient to carry in your pocket when you are out.
Open the charging box and you can see that AirPods is connected to the charging box by magnetic force.
AirPods:
The AirPods look the same as the earpods without a headphone cord. Perhaps earpods is designed to be perfect and AirPods hasn't changed much in shape.
Compared to earpods, AirPods has a larger handle (placement battery) and more sensor settings in detail.
It's hard to imagine AirPods integrating Apple W1 chips, optical sensors, motion acceleration sensors, microphones, batteries and more in such small buds.
Part 2: How to Connect Airpods in Settings
First connection:
Open the charging case with AirPods and place it next to the iPhone. An animation will appear on your iPhone screen at this time. Tap "Connect" and tap "Finish".
It is automatically set up to work with all apple device that is logged in with the same Apple ID. Unlike other Bluetooth headsets. You only need to select the connection in the AirPlay playback device and no need to set up Bluetooth.
The connection design:
Submit the pairing data, key, and power via the Bluetooth search (special frequency) around the iPhone and pop up the connection prompt on the iPhone screen. Once the connection is successful,the authorization is submitted to iCloud. In this way, only once pairing is required and AirPods can be easily used by all your apple devices.
Airpods connect to multiple devices:
AirPods automatically connect to your Apple devices. It can connect to your iPhone and iWatch at the same time,instantly switching between the two devices. Including MacBook and iPad, just select AirPods on these devices. When you use AirPods again, the device you last used is connected by default.

For Android and even PC devices, put AirPods in the charging box and open the lid. Press and hold the Setup button on the back of the charging case until you see the status light flashing white.Then operate the connection on the device.
According to the measurement, AirPods can be switched directly between Apple devices, PCs and Android without re-pairing or disconnecting.

If you are unable to set up AirPods or need to change users, you can reset AirPods. To do this, place the AirPods in the charging case and press and hold the setting button on the back for at least 15 seconds until the status light begins to flash a few times and changes from amber to white.
Part 3: Howto Use Airpods
AirPods are equipped with custom Apple W1 chips that use optical sensors and motion acceleration sensors to detect if you have put them in your ear. Whether you use both ears at the same time or just wear one of them, the W1 chip transmits audio automatically and activates the microphone.
You can even share AirPods with other people. Once you have a bud connection, leave one AirPods and the charging box to another person to connect and use.
AirPods Accessories:
Perhaps a wireless and split design,AirPods gives a feeling of being easily lost.
At this time, you can refer to some of the airpods accessories we provided before, they can help you better use airpods. When you go out, you will be worried that the smooth and small airpods case will be scratched and if this happens it will not be repaired.
Airpods case cover has a variety of new and cute appearance that help protect your airpods from the sharpest items while helping to make your airpods look more personal.
AirPods Status Indicator:
The status indicator of the charging box is located between the two AirPods vacancies.
Green indicates that it is fully charged and amber indicates that the remaining battery is not enough for AirPods. If the light is blinking white, it means that AirPods can be set up from a device. If the light is blinking amber, you may need to reset AirPods.
When using the iPhone, open the charging case cover with AirPods and bring the charging case closer to the device. Wait a few seconds to see the power status of the AirPods and the charging box.
You can also check the charging status of AirPods and the charging box via the Battery widget on your iOS device.
The charge box power will only be displayed if there is at least one bud in the charging case.
Airpods vs earpods sound quality:
AirPods supports AAC audio, which is slightly enhanced with EarPods only for bass and mid-range vocals. Based on this positioning, AirPods is not suitable for users who have high requirements for sound quality. However, AirPods performs better when you are on the phone or talking to Siri and the dual microphone with beamforming technology filters the background noise so your voice is clearly heard.
If your AirPods are lost?
AirPods, it is recommended to use "Find My iPhone" to locate AirPods, provided AirPods is not exhausted.
Blue dots indicate that you are using this device to find lost AirPods.
A green dot indicates that your AirPods is connected. This means you can play sounds or view routes to find them.
Gray dots indicate that AirPods is not connected or out of range. You may see the last known position.
Cons:
1. Wireless, easy to use.
2. Usage time is satisfactory. The charging box not only brings a great advantage to the battery life, but also facilitates storage. It is not easy to lose AirPods.
3. Convenient connection and user-friendly Bluetooth connection design.
4. Comfortable to wear and not easy to fall.
Pros:
1. The volume cannot be adjusted. In the gesture operation, there is no operation to adjust the volume by sliding. I believe that the next generation of airpods may have this feature.
2. There is no noise reduction on the sound quality, but noise reduction has not been Apple product advantages.
If you expect a best wireless earbud for iPhone, AirPods is the best Bluetooth headset available today. You no longer have to be tied to the headphone cable and you can seamlessly switch between all your Apple devices.
