The 2019 Apple AirPods provide you with even more talk time and voice-activated Siri access.

H1 chip Apple’s H1 chip ensures your 2019 AirPods will have even better connectivity, will increase battery life and also speed up pairing times. It also provides lower gaming latency and voice-enabled Siri access. Ask Siri If you want Apple’s voice assistant to help out, just say: ‘Hey Siri’ and it will spring into action, meaning you no longer have to reach for your iPhone. Power up Just use the trusty Lightning port to charge the case. To check the battery levels, just ask Siri: ‘How’s the battery on my AirPods?’ Clear sounds When you’re on a call or talking to Siri, the AirPods’ speech-detecting accelerometer works with beamforming microphones to filter out background noise and focus on the sound of your voice. Use your way There are times when using just one AirPod seems sensible – not to worry, you can wear one or both. Additionally, you can play or skip forward with a double tap when listening to music.
