Apple revealed the second-gen AirPods with little fanfare in March 2019, and while the new AirPods are more of a refinement than a reimagining of the original model, there's enough here to tempt consumers. The H1 chip makes the new AirPods faster, more re...
The second-gen AirPods are more of an iterative upgrade than a reimagining of the product. Fans of the first-gen AirPods may not find enough here to warrant an upgrade, but it's a great time for prospective buyers to take the plunge. Alongside the suite o...

I'll get this out of the way first: Apple's 2nd-generation AirPods are nearly identical to their predecessors.If you already own a pair of the company's first-generation wireless earbuds, you should probably skip their successors. That said, if you've bee...

When AirPods debuted in 2016, I was like many people: I thought they looked a bit silly, and I was never a fan of any earbuds Apple had ever made. There was always something about Apple's wired earbuds—their shape—that made me despise them. I'd put them i...
