Design will polarise opinion
Lose the charging case you're stuffed
Expensive
No audio upgrade compared to EarPods
Can fall out
Siri control is sluggish
Lack detail and dynamic subtlety
Siri implementation is so-so
Their open design allows for a lot of ambient noise to leak in. There are no controls on the buds (except Siri). Similarly priced wireless models deliver better sound. And yes
They look pretty dorky
Sound quality not much better than average
Don't fit in all ear types
Design isn't for everyone
Endast tillgängliga i en storlek
Ingen fjärrkontroll
Tjockare än de gamla hörlurarna
Audio range feels constrained
Doesn't block outside noise
Mediocre battery life
No isolation
Less stable when connected to nonApple devices
Lack of controls
Reliance on Siri requiring an internet connection
Non-adjustable size and shape means they won't fit everyone
Attention-grabbing design
And generally not in a good way
Easily lost and expensive to replace
Siri isn't yet a good replacement for buttons
They look a bit weird
Easy to lose one
Case needs to be less slippy
Doesn't fit all ears perfectly
No custom eartips
Mid-range audio quality
Treble can be harsh
Not suitable for fitness activity
Average sound quality
Expensive replacement parts
They tend to get loose in the ear and need readjustment (although they haven't actually fallen out yet)

AirPods aren't meant for everyone. The EarPods that come in the box with the iPhone 7 are the earphones meant for the proletariat; AirPods are meant for people who want to free themselves from a life of tangled wires and a physical tether to their phones...

Abstract: After banishing billions of earphones to the dustbin of history with its new AirPods, Apple finds itself at a crossroads. Clearly, the corporation hates cables. But which cables should it destroy next? Here are some suggestions.For a company that prides i...

Abstract: Friends, Romans, Apple fans, lend me your ears: the iPhone 7 is here and, as suspected, it's lost its 3.5mm audio port.If, like most, your headphones very much require one of those until-now-ubiquitous sockets, you have three musical options with your upg...

The AirPods have already polarised opinion when it comes to their design. Everyone we've asked would be conscious about wearing them, both because of the stick that protrudes from each ear and the fear of them falling out and getting lost.However the AirP...

Lack detail and dynamic subtlety, Siri implementation is so-so,
Ultimately, this is the sort of sound you'd expect from an average pair of affordable earphones, but it's contained within what is a pretty incredible feat of engineering.In the end, it probably comes down to whether you're prepared to put up with passabl...
