While not the newest wireless earbuds on the market, Apple’s second-generation AirPods, released in 2019, are an improved version of the original AirPods. These are currently on sale from Amazon for $164.
The AirPods (2nd-Gen) offers a number of features and upgrades, including wireless charging, improved battery life, improved connectivity, and hands-free “Hey Siri” support.
One of the most significant features of the second-generation AirPods is wireless charging. The AirPods come with a wireless charging case, which allows users to charge their AirPods by simply placing the case on a wireless charging mat.
In terms of battery life, the second-generation AirPods offer improved performance over the original AirPods. With a single charge, users can expect to get around 5 hours of listening time, or 3 hours of talk time. With the charging case, users can get up to 24 hours of listening time or 18 hours of talk time.
The 2nd-Gen AirPods come equipped with Apple’s H1 chip, which offers faster and more stable connectivity than the first-generation AirPods. This makes it easier for users to switch between devices and enjoy a seamless listening experience.
Finally, like the first-generation AirPods, the second-generation AirPods offer hands-free “Hey Siri” support. This allows users to control their music, make phone calls, and more, just by using their voice.
