AirPods 2 Charging

Apple has made the AirPods setup much simpler and easier. Setting up the new AirPods just needs a single one-tap setup and is ready for use. That being said, now you no longer need to pause your favorite music manually. Apple has added a new feature that detects when the AirPods are in your ears or not. As you take them out of your ears, whatever you are listening to are auto-magically paused.

With the new AirPods, now you can communicate directly with Siri to adjust the volume, making a call, changing a song and get directions. All you have to say is “Hay Siri”, and let Siri know how it can help you.
