When you place the pieces in your ear, the music will automatically begin playing. If they detect that they have been removed from your ear, the playback will automatically pause. This will help you to save battery. The Apple AirPods can hold up to 5 hours of playback time, while its storage case which doubles as a charging dock can hold another 24 hours. As for those of us who will also need to use the AirPods for hands-free calls and voice commands, there are microphones at the bottom of the device’s tip.
The new Apple AirPods are available now for $159.
