One set of headphones, seamless connectivity across most of your devices. That’s what sold Katelyn DiGiorgio, an instructor at Pure Barre in California, on Apple’s classic AirPods. “Once you pair them to your Apple devices, like your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Macbook, you don’t have to pair and re-pair,” she says. “The AirPods automatically switch to the device you’re playing content on, so you can answer a call on your phone, then get right back to listening to music on your iPad.” Kehinde Anjorin, a New York City–based trainer, also loves that she can leave her phone in one room and work out in another without having to worry about losing connectivity.
As far as features go, the latest AirPods boast spatial audio (so your music sounds like it’s coming from all around you), active noise cancellation, adaptive audio (which automatically adjusts your volume based on how loud your surroundings are), and transparency mode (so you can still hear background noise).
