Each part is rated on one scale for every earbud and headphone, from lab test measurements where they exist, what reviewers found, specs and owner reports. It rates the product itself, not how good it is for the price.

Pros

  • Lab sound quality among the best they test
  • Strong noise cancelling across most of the range
  • Reliable auto-pause and water-resistant case
  • Four tip sizes give most ears a good seal
  • Rich, detailed sound with solid bass and an airy presentation
  • Very effective noise cancelling for daily use
  • Light and comfortable, extra XS tip

Cons

  • Just under 6 h per charge with ANC
  • No built-in custom EQ
  • Many tricks only work with Apple devices
  • Mic only middling in their judgement
  • Sony XM5 has more detail, Bose is a touch quieter
  • Calls clear but a bit thin
  • Best features locked to Apple devices
  • SoundGuysMay 2025

    Lab tests put its sound near the top and its ANC well above average; the case is that it is still built around the iPhone. Covers the USB-C case.

  • What Hi-Fi?Sep 2023

    Apple's best-sounding AirPods when reviewed, close to class leaders; now replaced by Pro 3 but worth it at a discount. USB-C case model sounds the same.

  • Expert ReviewsJul 2024

    Still the best all-round iPhone earbuds; the USB-C version is a small step over Lightning, not a reason to upgrade.

  • DigitJan 2023

    A strong pick for Apple users with a premium budget; Android or Windows users lose most of what makes it special. Tested the Lightning version (same buds).

  • Deccan HeraldOct 2022

    A clear step up over the first Pro and the best TWS for Apple devices in India at the time. Tested the Lightning version (same buds).
