AirPods feature a custom Apple W1 chip that uses optical sensors and motion-acceleration sensors to detect whether you're wearing them in your ear. Whether you're using AirPods in both ears or just one, the W1 chip automatically transmits audio and activates the microphone. When you're on the phone or talking to Siri, the additional accelerometer works in tandem with the beamforming microphone to filter out background noise and lock in your voice. And because the low-power W1 chip manages battery life so well, AirPods are capable of up to five hours of listening on a single charge.
They're crafted to be ready when you are, and thanks to the additional multiple charges provided by the charging case, they're good for more than 24 hours of power use.
Need a quick charge? Just pop them in the charging case for 15 minutes and you'll get up to 3 hours of use4.
