The original AirPods were released six years ago today. After being delayed, the wireless headphones were made available to customers on December 19th.
The category of wireless headphones was popular because of deep integration with Apple devices.
Phil Schiller, Apple's former marketing chief, said that Air Pods are simple and magical to use, with no switches or buttons, automatically connecting to all your Apple devices, and letting you access Siri with just a double tap. We can't wait for people to try them with the new phones.
In- ear detection for automatic playing and pausing of music is one of the core features of the first- generation AirPods. Compared to Apple's wired Ear Pods headphones, the headphones were powered by Apple's W1 chip.
"This revolutionary experience is enabled by the new ultra-low power Apple W1 chip, which enables AirPods to deliver high-quality audio and industry-leading battery life in a completely wireless design," said Apple.
The second- and third-generation AirPods were released in March and October of this year, with better audio, longer battery life, and an optional wireless charging case. The higher-end AirPods Pro with active noise cancellation was launched in October 2019. The new AirPods are the second generation.
