Customer Ratings & Reviews

I was somewhat reluctant to make the investment, but I've been VERY pleased with the performance of these headphones. They are a bit pricey, but they are easily the most versatile and reliable wireless headphones I've ever owned. They maintain connectivity without interruption over a long range. They are not a replacement for the noise canceling capabilities of the Bose qc25 & wireless qc35 studio headphones (although the range of the AirPods is superior to the qc35). These are awesome "everyday" headphones. The apple AirPods stay in place surprisingly well and sound great for music, movies, audiobooks and phone calls. I got these as an upgrade from my apple EarPods. The part which goes in your is nearly identical in size to the EarPods, but the "stem" is slightly larger on the AirPods. I'll attach a couple side by side pics for comparison. The battery life is very impressive. I've never had them to go dead on be so far. I would highly recommend these!

I have gone through so many headphones and speakers just because I am never satisfied! And I have found the speaker and headphones I can recommend. First off these headphones DO NOT fall out of my ears, I unload trailers and load trucks and NOT once have they fallen! If you're scared of losing your headphones well you probably need to take care of your stuff better. Second, I absolutely love that the case charges them! They last about 4 1/2 hours on music playtime and I can charge them for 10-15 minutes on my break and be perfectly fine again! Which is excellent to me because no other headphones can do that for me! The case I probably charge once a week as well! I do recommend buying a little pouch case for your headphone case, I bought one off amazon just because I didn't want lint or anything getting the case or headphones dirty and it was worth it. I also love the instant connection to your phone it gives as soon as you open the case and it shows you the battery life as well. Also if you pull out a headphone the music automatically stops, so in case everyone's concerned about your earphone falling out lol.. Overall this is a great product! Especially for the price, like I said I have tried many brands. And I also loved my Powerbeats but when they recently started tearing I wasn't willing to spend $200+ on the new ones! I love no wires and and am truly satisfied with the product Only thing I didn't like was it doesn't come with a cleaning cloth lol And also wish they came in black! Other than that the sound is great and it's a great product!

I was skeptical about spending bucks for a Bluetooth earphones when you have $25 ones. So i bought them both, cheap one and the airpods. After trying the airpods, i went back to bestbuy and returned the cheap ones. LoL. I loved every bit of it. The earphones doesn’t come out when i run or jump. The size is good for your pockets and you can bring it with you everywhere.Sound is good as well. Charging is fast. You can forward or replay songs thru tapping on the earphones but you cant adjust the volume. That’s the only downside of it that i know.

At first I was like am I going to spend $159 for some headphones? The answer is yes. I used my old corded apple earbuds all the time I had a pair for my car, my book bag, my workout bag, I left a pair everywhere. Well these new Air Pods have put them all to rest. Since getting the iPhone 7 I find it clunky trying to keep up with the adapter to listen to music or make calls on the corded headphones. The new AirPods obviously solves that problem by being wireless but I got an added benefit. The sound quality is top notch, the bass is louder, and there is no cord swinging in front of me or running down my shirt or coat into my pants pocket. When I travel on airplanes I'm not getting tangled in anything or when I put my coat and scarf on here in Michigan no cord to worry about to connect to my phone. The charging case is like a separate charger so when I'm not using the headphones I stick them back in the case so they stay charged up pretty good. If you're thinking about them just do it...

I tried so hard to not buy these headphones, thinking that if I was going to pay $160, I wanted better sound quality than the normal EarPods the come with the iPhone in the box. However, I have been in the market for some wireless earbuds for a while. I don’t like beats headphones, have traditionally loved Bose headphones but their wireless earbuds are pretty bulky for wireless headphones. I do a lot of travel for work and I need them to be highly portable and easy for me to sleep on the plane with. The Bose SoundSport headphones just didn’t do it. Not to mention, it is $50 for their charging case alone AND i’d still need to tote around a micro-USB cable to charge the headphones or the case. The AirPods have made life super easy! The sound quality is essentially the same as the EarPods, which isn’t bad at all but can sometimes suffer in noisy areas as they don’t really do noise isolation very well unless you’re on the phone. It’s also mad convenient how the charging case comes with the headphones AND charges with a lightning cable, meaning no extra cable is needed and I can use them same cable as my phone! The entire experience with them has been so seamless and this is exactly why Apple is the powerhouse they are today. I try not to be an Apple FanBoy but c’mon, they make it so easy!

Ok I’ll start with the good stuff : Once you flip the case open they connect to the phone , great range I was roaming in my home away from the phone and the connection didn’t drop one bit...they fit nicely in my ear lobes , at least for me , as long the case is charged you don’t have to worry about losing power , just put the pods in their housing and they charge up quickly . You can use the find my iPhone feature to locate them if you misplace them so that’s a good feature .. Now The not so good...there is no volume rocker ! Why isn’t there no volume rocker Apple?!!!!!! Why ? I have to use my phone to control the volume or I have to speak to Siri to do that ! A simple swipe up or down gesture would work great and I find self doing that sometimes so yeah a Majour no no and I’m sure I’m not the only one out there complaining about this ! I can’t tell whether the pods are on or off ! No blinker or a turn off button but that’s the least that bothers me ! Over all a nice gadget

After using the AirPods for several hours a day for a month, there's a lot to like about Apple's first foray into truly wireless headphones. I used the AirPods just one bud at a time while listening to music/podcasts and for short phone calls in an office setting. ----- Pros: Bluetooth Connection: Due to Apple's W1 chip, the bluetooth connection is very strong, seemingly up to and beyond 30-50 feet. I was able to walk downstairs in a building and still maintain connection while my iPhone was still on the second floor. Also, the phone reception seems strong as whenever I was on the phone people generally heard me fine. Auto Stop: If you're listening to music and you remove one of the buds, whatever you're listening to will stop automatically due to sensors in the buds. I've used this feature countless times, especially whenenver someone starts a conversation with me while I'm listening to music while sitting at my desk. Now I just remove the buds(s) and I don't have to worry about fumbling around for the "pause" button either on my headphones or iPhone. Single Pod: I nearly always use the AirPods just one bud at a time, both in an effort to conserve battery life and to be more aware of my surroundings. This is a huge plus for me, since I'm used to the neckband-style headphones in which one of the buds was never used (and usually just dangled down the front of my shirt). Also a plus is that there's a microphone in both buds, rather than just a single one. Case: An underrated element of the AirPods is the thing that you don't actually put in your ears. It's the charging case. This thing will always be by your side, because once you take one of the buds out, there's nowhere to put it without risk of losing it. The buds magnetically lock into place in the case, so once they're in, they're not going anywhere, even with the case lid open. The case itself could feel a little sturdier as you'll almost want to buy a case for your case, but it's a great way to keep both pods and the charging system all in one little package that's barely larger than a pack of floss. Charging: Whenever you put the buds in the case, they'll automatically start changing. And these things charge fast. I placed one bud in the case once its battery life was down to 11% remaining and in exactly 10 mins it was already up to 77%. You do have to charge the case itself occasionally, but as long as you have the case around, the 5-hour battery life will never become an issue. Pairing: Thanks to Apple's W1 chip, these are the easiest bluetooth headphones to pair for iOS devices. For intial pairing, simply open the top of the charging case next to your iOS device, tap "connect" on the popup, and that's it. No messing around in the Settings section of your device, no holding a combination of buttons a certain number of seconds. And everytime after that, simply remove the bud(s) from the case, place it in your ear, and you'll be automatically connected. Convenience: This might be the AirPods' biggest pro. I'm not sure the convenience of a truly wireless experience and automatic pairing can be overstated. Being able to pop a single bud in your ear, have it connect automatically, and almost always have a full battery is like magic. Taking the headphones off and not having to turn them off/on is also a nice cherry on top. Fit/Comfort/Audio Quality: I have this listed as both a pro and a con. Simply put, these aren't the most comfortable or best-fitting set of headphones. The one-size-fits-all approach means these are going to fit similarly to the Apple Earbuds that come for free with every iPhone, and they're going to sound basically identical. However, I will say that despite what it looks like, these things aren't going to fall out of your ears (even if they may feel like it at times), and they sound good enough for being truly wireless. Ambient noise is inevitable since they aren't noise-cancelling and aren't shoved deep into the eardrum, but that's a personal plus for me. I also find the buds sometimes rubbing up against my beard, creating a bit of a popping noise, so I'll have to readjust when that happens. ----- Cons: Fit/Comfort/Audio Quality: See above. Price: These things aren't cheap. $160 for headphones that sound similar to the same pair that you received for free with your last iPhone? You're not really paying for premier sound quality as much as you're paying for the convenience factor. Lack of Physical Controls: There are no physical controls on the AirPods, so if you want to skip a track or change volume, you'll have to do on your actual iOS device. However, you can use the AirPods to play/pause or call up Siri, which brings me to.... The Double-Tap: This might be my biggest gripe with the AirPods - the double-tap should work while wearing an AirPod and giving it two sharp taps, which will either summon Siri or play/pause (depending on your settings). But it doesn't work for me a lot of the time and I resort to making these changes on my iPhone. I hope that the AirPods 2 or a software update either improves the double tap, or allows for some new gesture controls that make it easier to change volume, skip track, etc. Color: Yes, the white is Apple's bread-and-butter color, but it would have been nice to have a space gray/black option like the iPhone lineup. Fragility/Wax Buildup: Fragile might be the wrong word, but I live in fear of dropping an AirPod in the street, down a sewer grate, or anytime I get up and start walking around. Irrational perhaps, but the neckband headphones do provide a sense of security. I also find myself carrying around a microfiber cloth and cotton swab to clean off the AirPods whenever I take them off, since these things get ear wax on and in them just like the Earpods. ----- All in all, I've enjoyed the AirPods. The auto pairing, the convenience, the case, the sound quality, and the lack of wires all contribute to a great product. They could be better (physical controls, shorter stem, more color options, maybe $15-20 less expensive, a comply eartip version). If you're looking for something with similar features, but you want more bass, longer battery, then check out the BeatsX. I almost went with that option, but I really didn't want to deal with any more wires. I recommend these over neckband headphones, especially in a office setting. For truly wireless headphones, these are among the best in the market, especially if you already live in the Apple ecosystem.

After going through almost every other brand I got these. I initially didn't get them because of the wait time, and needed a earbud immediately. Finally after being so dissatisfied with everything else I ordered these, and couldn't be happier. - Good sound quality - Excellent range - Easy to use - Recharge storage box BRILLIANT I would suggest getting the little rubberized holder with clip also. I lost my first pair in the box. Loved them so much ordered another with the carrying case that clips to my keychain. Couldn't be happier now regarding my earbuds!

They’re very easy to use, great sound, they connect AUTOMATICALLY once place in your ear, double tap the earpiece to utilize siri everything including player controls or set that gesture for just “play/pause,” the white box they store in has an independent battery to charge the AirPods. Use one peice at a time for maximum use (one charges while the other is being used) ... Pricey, yes, but the last ones you’ll ever buy. Worth every penny!

I work in a open work environment- I can listen to my music without the wires and cords. No more hassling with splitters to charge and listen at the same time. Took them running and they didn’t budge or slip which I expected them to! No more forgetting headphones when flying! Found a cute no slip case cover online. Buying another set as a gift (and another cover)

Let me start off by saying I’ve used other fully wireless headphones before and loved compared to these and overall performance and fitment. The sound quality is about the same as in the headphones you get with your iPhone. The fitment is also the same with the headphones to get with your iPhone which for me both isn’t bad since the sound quality is terrible and the fitment is perfect for my ears also you can buy the little wings so they won’t pop out of your ears and you won’t lose these headphones. Pros: Fitment Sound Connects quick Phone calls Cons: Price Loook like toothbrush head

I honestly didn't expect these to arrive to the end of January "6 weeks"! Thank you Best Buy for making my Christmas awesome one!!! Now for the product review, this is the best product I bought of 2016! I absolutely love the simplicity and "wire" freedom! These fit my ears perfectly just like apples wired earbuds but unlike them they don't come out of my ear because the wires are pulling them out of my ears! A word of warning if Apple's wired ear pods don't fit odds are these won't and if they do odds are they will fit! Only possible things I could nitpick about is I wish they had volume control on the air pod itself instead of having to do it manually on your phone or relying on Siri and I wish they came and colors that could match the phone finishing you chose. These would look so awesome in jet black! All in all there's definitely some improvements that can be made for generation two of these however generation one is still amazing! They are a little pricey but for me they are worth it!

I've gone through quite a few pairs of bluetooth headphones over the last 2 years; mostly due to each one having a design flaw in one way or another. My biggest complaints with other BT headphones were: a cable tethered from one earbud to the other, the means by which they charge (dust covers over the ports, proprietary cables, etc) poor battery life, and no case. These Apple Airpods resolved EVERY complaint that I've had with prior Bluetooth headphones! PROS: Sleek Design, Case (that doubles as a charger), no tether from one earbud to the other, ability to seamlessly pair with my iPhone 7 Plus, ability to use Find My iPhone (in the case Airpods) in order to locate a lost Airpod, comfort while wearing (although this is subject to the user), superb battery life and fast charging (either by the case OR charging cable!) CONS: While the sound quality is good, there is definitely room for improvement. Color choices besides white would be great as well.

Yes I recommend buying the $20 accessory kit that makes the fit securely in your ears. My right ear has alway fit well with previous ear buds but my left ear has always been difficult. The kit has clear rubber attachments that blend in. Great sound and awesome look.

Let's get the obvious stuff out of the way. Yes, they're expensive. But the benefits outweigh the cost. They're discreet, so you can have them on and it's harder for people to tell. There's no wire, which means nothing to get hooked on, and they don't easily fall out. BIG PLUS. They charge inside the case, which is compact, so it fits nicely in your pocket and your airpods are more protected. From fully charged, they last from 3 to 5 hours, depending on volume and how long you have it on. I absolutely recomend this to EVERYONE.

I have been looking forward to getting these for several months and finally pulled the trigger. And I'm so glad I did. I absolutely love them. They paired with my iPhone immediately and auto paired with my MacBook Pro since they are both on the same iCloud account. The pausing when you take an AirPods out of your ear is awesome. The charge time is as advertised and with the included case, I have no issues with battery life. Everything feels premium and feels like it is made with great materials. The W1 Apple designed chip in these really make them shine. I would definitely recommend these over any other pair of headphones if you have multiple Apple devices. I'm normally a Bose fan and have Bose surround sound in my living room and the portable SoundLink III, but these are superb for headphones.

Sales associate talk me into getting the pods. I wasn’t trill at first due to I was interested in jams . One full day of listening to my pods blew me away . Thumbs up to the sale associate who assist me .

I love my AirPods, i use them everyday. I have a Galaxy Note 10 and they still pair great like any other BT headphones. The sound quality is incredible for how small they are. This is my second pair, my first pair stoped working after a year and a half or usage. The battery capacity drops afer a year of usage to about 70%. On my first pair, i would get around 4 1/2 to 5hrs of usage from new to year 1. After 14months or so the battery slowly started to last less and less. Eventually i would get around 2 - 2 1/2 hours from full charge. One day the right earbud stopped working. I picked up a second pair, this time i got AppleCare because i know after a year i will probably have to send them to apple due to battery drain. I also have Audio Technica MTH-M50 BT which are phenomenal headphones as well. I also have some galaxy buds live. And i find myself using my Airpods the most. They don't hurt my ears, sound quality is great, base is descent. So i would definitely recommend these wether your an audiophile or causal listener.

I own lots of Apple stuff. I love it. But I had been undecided on whether AirPods would have enough extra value to justify the cost. Boy, was I impressed! First, they sound great, and the mics work super for phone calls. Secondly, the design of the case (which also functions as a mobile charger) is truly elegant. I never used to carry wired pods regularly, because they always got tangled in my pocket, but these are in my pocket every day now. I use them when driving instead of my vehicle Bluetooth, because Siri works so much better. These little pods feel great, sound super, and have become indispensable to my everyday activity. Highly recommended!

I absolutely love these! I have owned several higher end Bluetooth headphones and these are the best. The sound quality while on the phone is the best and the battery life is excellent. They charge fairly quickly when placed back into the battery base. And yes, they stay in your ear during your run or workout.
