Warm, relatively balanced sound, Decent volume, Rechargeable storage, Siri connection is a little easier to talk to
Audio bleeds in and out due to earbud design, meaning you'll probably have to turn them up in transit, Controls need work and customisation, May not be comfortable for all, Android controls aren't customisable at all

Abstract: I doubt if there is one particular earphone that is more popular than the Apple AirPods. In the US for instance, you would see everyone from Silicon Valley CEOs to construction workers wearing them all the time. A recent trip to HongKong exposed me to dif...
Ample bass, Peppy highs with smooth roll-off, Low distortion, Improved battery life over first-gen AirPods
Recessed mids, Long charging times, Prone to scratches
The new Apple AirPods sound good, not great, but good. While the earphones produce relatively deep bass that's not highly accurate, it handles the highs quite well but the mids are slightly dampened. With a slew of features that will cater to most users'...

Abstract: While we are all hopeful for a better recovery from the pandemic this year, it looks like we will be staying at home for a bit longer. Most of us are well-prepared thanks to last year's experience, buying lots of stuff online like food, gaming consoles, g...
