Let me Honest here, the Airpods sound quality and features are worth buying, and also some more pricey , although you can get the same sound quality at a cheaper price.



If you have an iphone , then you must buy it and connectivity is also great specially with iOS and you need to compromise with some things and that is i think in each and every product in universe which have some negative point .


Buying airpods 2 gen is a great decision if you want an earbud that has awesome sound quality , features and battery life .


Battery life is also a great thing in airpods 2 gen which upto 24 hours.


Need to compromise with fit and if you want the best fit then, i think you can go for Airpods pro.
