Apple’s AirPods 2 stay mostly the same and that’s not a bad thing
Same size, upgraded case and internals, the AirPods 2 stick to a winning formula. — Picture by Erna Mahyuni
Yet in the end the AirPods have proven to be a success with Internet searches rising 500 per cent year-on-year and Apple’s CEO called them a “cultural phenomenon” — and it’s not even an exaggeration. If they didn’t fit last time, they won’t this time. If you liked the first-gen, is this worth an upgrade? Again, that depends.
Battery-life is also a touch better — stretching to four hours as opposed to the around three-hours previously. Being able to listen to music, take calls and yet still be aware of outside environment stimuli is, for some people, a feature and not a problem. There truly is no contest as far as usability is concerned if you’re an Apple user. But Android users might be better off elsewhere.
