AirPods are a fantastic set of earbuds built for avid Apple users looking for a convenient solution to truly-wireless audio, but they could be even better with some refinement. Apple has released a few different kinds of AirPods since the first iteration of the headphones back in 2016, but they all have similarities. Interestingly, the tech company developed the lineup to solve a problem that Apple itself created by removing the headphone jack. Through the iPhone 6S series, every iPhone was designed with a headphone jack, but the iPhone 7 and later forewent the port to preserve water resistance and save space. For that reason, there was a market for wireless earbuds, and Apple was prepared to dominate it with the AirPods.
The first thing most people think of when they hear the word 'AirPods' is the image of tiny and sleek white earbuds. However, the lineup of headphones is significantly more complex than that image. Apple continues to sell the second and third-generation AirPods, which resemble the classic Apple in-ears that shipped with iPods and iPhones for decades. It also sells the AirPods Pro, an upgraded version that utilizes soft earbud tips to create a firm seal around the ear. This makes some of the more unique features of the AirPods Pro possible, like noise cancellation and transparency mode. Aside from the in-ears, the company also sells an over-ear pair of headphones that bears the AirPods branding — the AirPods Max. Unfortunately, all of these headphones have flaws, but they could be made even better if corrected.
