- What's up guys, Saf here on SuperSaf TV
and I've literally just got back from Cupertino.
I was there for the Apple event
chilling with all my celebrity buddies as you do.
You guys may have already seen the image
which is completely and totally legit.
Of course not Photoshopped whatsoever.
But I had to tell those guys, hey look,
I got work to do, I got videos to make.
You guys carry on, I'm going to come back
and unbox these, the AirPods 2.
They're technically not called the AirPods 2,
what we've got here is AirPods Wireless Charging Case.
I mean, not the most exciting name.
Like, Apple usually come up with something quite cool like
AirPods Wireless or I don't know, something...
Okay, clearly I'm not the one to make up the name for these
but I just think something a little bit more catchy
would have been better written here
instead of just AirPods Wireless Charging Case.
Anyway, so at the top of the box
we have the image of the AirPods.
Apple logo on the left and right
and something that Marquez actually noticed in his video
is that it says here, compatible with iOS device,
Apple Watch, or Mac with the latest software.
Works with AirPower and Qi-certified charges.
So we still have a reference to AirPower here.
Does that mean that we're going to be seeing AirPower soon?
I mean, if they've got it printed on every single new box
of the AirPods then I would assume so.
I think, I've got a feeling
that we're probably going to see AirPower soon.
But anyway, let's get these bad boys out of the box.
The previous generation AirPods
I believe are the world's most popular wireless earphones
and I guess it's just all round to the connectivity
because I've tried so many different wireless earphones
and some of them disconnect and, you know,
they just keep losing connection and things like that.
These are very, very consistent.
Designed by Apple in California,
so we've got some paperwork here.
Usual stuff but no Apple stickers or anything like that.
And here is the little case.
Oh, there's also a cable in here,
there's a lightning cable also in the box
so if you do want to charge these
with a lightning cable then you can do it,
you don't only have to wirelessly charge these, but anyway.
And here is the wireless charging case,
it looks pretty much identical
to the previous generation wireless charging case
so we've got that glossy white finish.
I really wish that we had
like a matte black finish or something,
even a glossy black finish would have been pretty cool
and it would have also differentiated
previous generation AirPods from the new generation AirPods.
But I guess these are kind of like the S series of iPhone
so an incremental updates,
not a major redesign or anything like that
and maybe that's why they just kept the color the same.
Right here at the front there is also the LED indicator
and we've got I believe a Bluetooth button here at the back.
Now I'm going to go ahead and connect these live to my iPhone,
let me just make sure there's no dodgy messages on here.
Okay, iPhone XS Max is here with my dope new wallpaper
which I got at the Steve Jobs theater, of course.
And now let's see it's unlocked and I'm going to open these up.
Oh, yeah, I need to update my software first,
that might be a good idea.
Let me do that and try this again.
- [Narrator] A few moments later.
- Right, my iPhone is now updated.
I'm sorry, guys, give me a break,
I've just come off like a 50 hour flight or whatever it was.
But, it's updated now, took quite a bit time for my Wi-Fi
but let's go ahead and test this out.
Open.
Yes, there you go.
Love that, nice 3D animation, connect, connecting.
Set up, Hey Siri.
Use Siri, done.
That was super easy and that's what I love about this.
So it shows me how much each of the AirPods have battery
and we can also see the battery indicator
for the charging case.
And in total you've got up to 24 hours
of battery life with the charging case and the AirPods
and if you're using the AirPods on a single charge
it should give you over five hours of listening time
and around three hours of talk time
if you're using it for calls.
Now let's go ahead and try these on,
one of the problems that I tend to have with AirPods
is the fact that they don't properly sit in my ear,
they do fall out a lot and that's because my ears
are maybe not the perfect shape for these.
I'm probably going to get
a silicone hook or something inside them
but let's just try them out.
See, yeah they're just, they're not going to stay.
Okay, they're in for now
and I'm just going to test out some music
just to see what they sound like.
So I mean, they sound pretty good
but I can already start feeling them
a little bit kind of dropping off
and they do come off quite easily.
Again, this is going to depend on your personal ear shape,
I'm going to be getting some sort of
silicone hooks or something that way they do stay in.
Now in terms of other improvements you do have
up to two times faster switching between active devices
and up to 1.5 times faster connection for phone calls.
You've also got 30% lower latency when gaming.
Now one of the key things about these AirPods
is the fact that you've got this wireless charging case.
Now you are going to have to pay extra
for this wireless charging case, it's at around 200 pounds
or $200 if you want this full package.
But if you have the previous generation AirPods
and you do want that wireless charging experience
you can pick up just the wireless charging case
for around 80 pounds or $80.
Now I want to test out the wireless charging
but I don't have a wireless charger at hand
because I'm sat here and plugged in
but I do have another device that can wirelessly charge
and that is the Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus.
Dare I try to charge my AirPods
with the S10 Plus, let's do it.
All right, you ready for this, guys?
what is going to happen, is the universe gonna implode?
I don't know, we'll find out, here goes nothing.
Whoa!
Okay, that was the special effects,
that didn't really happen.
I know I'm getting good with Photoshop and VFX
but hey, hey, can you believe that?
It's charging, you can see that the LED is now orange
to indicate that it is charging.
So you can use the S10 Plus to charge the AirPods 2,
that's quite cool.
Now does this mean that the new iPhone
is also going to have reverse wireless charging?
Possibly, I think would make sense
for the new iPhone to have reverse wireless charging
but we'll see. Now in terms of how long
it actually takes to charge the AirPods,
if you pop them back into the case for 15 minutes
that should give you up to three hours of listening time
and up to two hours of call time, which is pretty good.
And what else is new?
Well, we've got the H1 chip in here,
we do have support for Siri,
so we've got always listening
and you can just ask what you would ask Siri normally
and you can do that with your AirPods
which if you do use Siri quite a bit
it is going to be quite useful for you.
And if you want to find out
how much battery you got left on the AirPods
you can just bring them close to your iPhone
and either a graphic's going to pop up
or you can just ask Siri.
Hey, (bleeps)
What's the battery like on my AirPods?
- [Siri] Your AirPod case is at 68
and Safwan's AirPod's at 84%.
- There you go, as easy as that.
So those are the new AirPods, the AirPods 2019,
the AirPods 2, whatever you want to call them.
In terms of my impressions,
I think if you like the previous generation AirPods
you're really going to like these as well.
I do think however that the wireless charging case
should have been included in the regular price
of 160 pounds $160
so you're going to have to pay out 40 pounds of dollars more
if you want the full wireless charging package
with these new AirPods
but I'm sure they're going to sell really, really well anyway.
What do you guys think of the new AirPods?
Definitely let me know in the comments below
and also let me know if you want me to do
a comparison with these bad boys, the Samsung Galaxy buds.
I'd say that these are probably my favorite wireless earbuds
on the Android side so definitely let me know
if you want me to put these head-to-head.
