AirPods 2: Apple surprisingly launches the new generation of wireless charging headphones and H1 chips

No iPod Touch as announced this morning, but to a very great surprise, Apple launched the second generation of AirPods. Let’s see all the news.

AirPods reinvent wireless headsets. Now they last longer in conversation, they allow you to activate Siri by voice and have a new wireless charging case. They are ready for all your devices: wear them and connect instantly, wrapping you in a very high quality sound . And everything happens as if by magic.

You will hear that performance.

Thanks to the new Apple H1 chip, AirPods connect to devices in less time and in a more stable way: they are up to twice as fast when you switch from one active device to another, and the audio connection for phone calls is one and a half times faster. The H1 chip also allows Siri to be activated with voice and reduces latency in video games by up to 30%.

Ask Siri

Now the personal assistant is at your fingertips: when you need it, you just say “Hey Siri”, without even taking the iPhone out of your pocket.

Not just wireless

The new AirPods with the wireless charging case will be sold at the price of € 229.00, the classic format remains, with the case without wireless charging but with all the new features at the cost of the old generation, or € 179.00. Finally, for those who want to adapt the first generation with support for wireless charging, Apple has made it possible to purchase only the case compatible with wireless charging at a cost of € 89.00

Another little news. Apple will now be able to enter, when ordering only via the Apple Online Store site or the official Apple Store app, an engraving on the AirPods case, at no additional cost.

Is AirPower coming too? Well, at this point we hope for tomorrow …
