Wireless. Effortless. Magical.
With plenty of talk and listen time, voice-activated Siri access,
and an available wireless charging case, AirPods deliver an
incredible wireless headphone experience. Simply take them
out and they’re ready to use with all your devices. Put them in
your ears and they connect immediately, immersing you in rich,
high-quality sound. Just like magic.

Wireless to the fullest.
After a simple one-tap setup, AirPods are automatically on and
always connected. Using them is just as easy. They sense when
they’re in your ears and pause when you take them out. And the
AirPods experience is just as amazing whether you’re using them
with your iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, Mac, or Apple TV.
Your right‑hand Siri.
Need a hand? Simply say “Hey Siri” for assistance without having to reach
for your iPhone. And with Announce Notifications, Siri can automatically
read important notifications from Messages, Phone, Calendar, Reminders,
and more as they arrive. You can choose which contacts you hear
notifications from, and Siri won’t interrupt you if you’re on a call or sharing
a song.
Hey Siri,
call Dad
Hey Siri, play my
Chill Mix
Hey Siri, turn up
the volume
Hey Siri, how do I get
to Prospect Park?
Performance you’ll want to hear.
Powered by the Apple H1 headphone chip, AirPods deliver a faster and more
stable wireless connection to your devices — up to 2x faster when switching
between active devices, and a 1.5x faster connection time for phone calls.
The H1 chip also drives voice-enabled Siri access and delivers up to 30 percent
lower gaming latency. So whether you’re playing games, listening to music, or
enjoying podcasts, you’ll experience higher-quality sound.
Optical sensors and motion
accelerometers work together to
automatically control the audio
experience, engaging the
microphones for phone calls and
Siri access, and enabling AirPods to
play sound as soon as they’re in
your ears. You also have the
freedom to wear one or
both AirPods, and you can play or
skip forward with a double-tap
when listening to music.
Knows when you’re talking.
A speech-detecting accelerometer
recognizes when you’re speaking
and works with a pair of
beamforming microphones to filter
out external noise and focus on the
sound of your voice.
Lay it down, charge it up.
With the available Wireless Charging Case, charging is as simple as placing the
AirPods case on a Qi-certified charging mat. That’s it. The LED indicator on the
front of the case lets you know that your AirPods are charging. And when you’re
away from a charging mat, you can use the Lightning port to charge.
The power of 24‑hour battery life.
AirPods deliver an industry-leading 5 hours of listening time — and now up to 3 hours of
talk time — all on one charge. And they’re made to keep up with you, thanks to a charging
case that holds multiple charges for more than 24 hours of listening time. Need a quick
charge? Just put AirPods back in the case for 15 minutes to get up to 3 hours of
listening time or up to 2 hours of talk time. To check the battery, hold the AirPods next to
your iPhone or ask Siri “How’s the battery on my AirPods?” And when your AirPods need
charging, a notification conveniently appears on your iPhone.

Two can play this song.
With Audio Sharing, you can easily share a song,
podcast, or other audio stream between two sets of
AirPods — each with independent volume control. If
your AirPods are in their case, just bring them close to
the iPhone or iPad you want to share with and connect
in a tap. And if your AirPods are in your ears, bring
your iPhone close to the device instead.
