On September 7, Apple CEO Tim Cook introduced the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus smartphones, which do not have a headphone jack. Along with them, Cook showed new Apple AirPods wireless headphones, which can connect not only to the new iPhone, but also to any other device - an Apple tablet or Mac.

We have collected the main characteristics of the presented news, based on data from the site. Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),.

1. The headphones can work without recharging for 5 hours in case of continuous music playback. If you place the “ears” in the case for 15 minutes to recharge, the charge will last for another 3 hours of battery life.

2. The price for them will be $ 159;

3. AirPods lack buttons and switches. Apple's wireless headphones are ready to use out of the box: you just need to take them out of the included charging case and touch them, after which they will automatically connect to all other available i-devices that are signed in through iCloud.

4. If you touch the case twice, the Siri voice assistant is activated. By giving commands to the assistant, you can switch tracks and playlists, adjust the volume, check the battery life, as well as make calls and route directions.

5. Apple W1 processor, optical sensors and accelerometer allow you to detect when AirPods are in your ears. When a user puts AirPods on, audio starts playing automatically, and when they take them off, it pauses. If you need to make a call, you can take out only one earphone - AirPods themselves will understand when to turn off the microphone and return the music. In this case, the sound can come from different devices: for example, a call from an iPhone, and music from an Apple Watch or Mac.

6. Headphones are compatible with any Apple product on iOS 10, watchOS 3 or macOS (Sierra). AirPods can also work in devices from other manufacturers via Bluetooth, however, in this case, their functions and sensitivity will be limited.

Despite all these characteristics, users of social networks reacted to the new product with irony, suggesting that the headphones will often fall out of the ears and get lost.
