The first major announcement of the last Apple event was the updated AirPods. The third generation model received a design from the Pro version: the leg of the device was shortened, anatomical shape was made and rubber elements were removed.
From a technical point of view, the headphones also received a number of improvements, the main of which was the H1 chip. The model also acquired a special amplifier with a wide dynamic range, which allows reproducing deep rich bass and clear high notes. The built-in microphone is located behind the acoustic grid, which has a positive effect on noise cancellation and voice clarity during calls. It is worth noting the presence of spatial audio technology with dynamic head tracking Spatial Audio and adaptive equalizer Adaptive EQ, as in the Pro model, which adjusts the sound to the owner individually.
In terms of protection, the new product is IPX4 compliant, so the earbuds and charging case are sweat- and water-resistant. The autonomy of the device is 6 hours, and together with the case - 30 hours. There is also the possibility of fast charging: an extra hour of listening will be provided in five minutes.
Among other features of the new AirPods, it is worth highlighting the support for magnetic charging of the MagSafe case and the presence of a skin touch sensor that determines the position of the headphones in the user's ear or, for example, on the table. When you remove the headset from your ear, playback stops automatically.
Headphones are set up in one touch, after which the device is connected to all Apple gadgets. The model also has an audio sharing option that allows you to stream audio simultaneously to two pairs of headphones.
The recommended retail price for the new product is $179. The headset is available for pre-order and will hit stores on October 26th. At the same time, Apple cut the price tag for the previous generation AirPods to $129.
