Hey what's up guys, Stephen Cults of Mac here and after 2 months of delays the Apple's Airpods
0:06
have finally been released. So in this video I'm going to unbox them and give you my first impressions
0:12
So let's get started. So here they are in all their glory
0:19
There's a nice embossed product picture on the front which gives it a cool 3D effect
0:23
On the side there's that silver Apple logo and Airpods on the top
0:28
And on the back there's another product shot showing the charging case and lightning connector
0:55
So on top there appears to be the usual quick start guides. Let's take this out
1:03
Yep and here's the quick start guides showing you how to connect the Airpods which is as
1:06
simple as opening up the case and the iPhone will prompt the rest
1:16
There's also all of the usual legal info. And surprisingly no Apple stickers
1:25
Underneath all of that we've got the Airpods themselves within the charging case
1:31
There's also a lightning to USB cable underneath. Let's put everything to one side and take a look at the Airpods themselves
1:41
Take the plastic off. And there they are. The case is really nice and even closes magnetically
1:51
On the bottom you've got the lightning port so you can charge the case and in turn the
1:55
Airpods themselves. If I take out my iPhone, oh yep, the prompt to connect the Airpods has automatically come
2:02
on as I've opened up the case. So if I just follow the prompt, connecting, it's that simple
2:14
So let's take them out of the case and look at the Airpods. They're pretty much identical to the standard Airpods only without the annoying wire which
2:21
is always getting tangled up and now the microphone is hidden in the stem
2:26
As you'd expect they're really well built, well for $159 you'd hope so
2:34
The case itself has a little LED indicator to let you know that the case has charge and
2:38
to let you know when the Airpods are charging. So all that's left to do now is to try them out
2:46
Oh, so they make a little noise when you put them in your ears
3:01
So as a quick test, they don't sound any different to the current Airpods but they're still nice
3:07
and loud, nice and clear, just as comfortable as the standard Airpods
3:12
Obviously they're the same size and weight, just without that annoying wire in the middle
3:18
So they've also got microphones built into the bottom here so let's make a quick phone call
3:24
Also every time you take them out of your ears they pause automatically
3:28
Hello, how does it sound? Does it sound any better or worse than calling me from my iPhone
3:44
Sounds a bit clearer. Alright, cheers babe. Well that's it for this video but if you'd like to see a full review of Apple's Airpods
