Product details
AirPods change the way you use headphones forever. When you take your AirPods out of their charging case, they turn on and connect to your iPhone, iPad, Mac or Apple Watch.
Audio plays automatically as soon as you put it in your ear and pauses when you take it out. To adjust the volume, change the song, call someone or get directions, simply activate Siri with a double tap.
Controlled by the specially designed Apple W1 chip, AirPods use optical sensors and an accelerometer to tell if they're in your ear. The W1 chip automatically routes audio and activates the microphone - whether you use both or just one. And if you're on the phone or talking to Siri, another accelerometer with wave-banding microphones filters out background noise and highlights your voice. Because the extremely energy-efficient W1 chip controls battery power so well, AirPods offer a unique playback time of up to 5 hours per charge. And thanks to the charging case, which offers several additional charges for a total of over 24 hours of playback, they'll easily keep up with whatever you're doing. Quick charge? After only 15 minutes in the charging case you can listen to 3 hours of music.

Overall ratingVery good87/100
Very good92/100
- Sehr starke Akkulaufzeit
- Schöner Sound
- Leicht und unauffällig für den Träger
- Keine Lauststärke-Regelung am Stecker
- Für Android-Nutzer weniger Features
Apples Airpods überzeugen im Test mit hohem Tragekomfort, gutem bis sehr gutem Sound und einer erstklassigen Akkulaufzeit. Der Klang ist warm, voll und angenehm, lässt aber Spritzigkeit vermissen. Zu abgespeckt fällt jedoch das Bedienkonzept aus, am Kopfhörer lässt sich beispielsweise nicht einmal die Lautstärke ändern.
Stiftung Warentest18 Bluetooth-In-Ohr-Kopfhörer 11/2018ReleaseOctober 2018
Stäbchenförmig. Klingen gut. Lautstärke ist am Hörer nicht änderbar. Schalten sich bei Nichtgebrauch nicht ab, was den Akku leert. Nur Sprachassistent Siri aufrufbar. Keine Ohrpassstücke, Tragekomfort bei Bewegung: Sitzen bei manchen Prüfpersonen nicht gut und sicher. Schirmen Außengeräusche kaum ab...
