For wireless Bluetooth headsets, AirPods has built a reputation for incredible low latency, bringing surprises to countless users. Once you’ve used AirPods, there is no going back. According to the latest official data, the second generation of AirPods with the new H1 chip supports Bluetooth 5.0, which is better than the 1st generation in terms of processing delay, transmission distance and stability.
1.Connectivity
Apple’s official introduction looks great, but it is confusing: Is it really so strong? I heard that the computing power of the H1 chip can compete with the A4 chip of the iPhone4. In the daily normal usage, the second generation connection of AirPods is about 25% farther than AirPods1. Various obstacles in our surrounding , such as walls and cabinets, they will affect the connection distance.
2.Speed
Compared to the traditional Bluetooth headset pairing connection, AirPods breakthroughs the optical sensor and motion accelerator detection connection, taking the Bluetooth headset experience to a whole new level.
Whether it’s bin aural or single-ear use, AirPods recognizes very fast. After dozens of in-ear tests, we found that the 1st and 2nd generations detected the same speed in the ear, but the second generation of AirPods can complete the switching of device faster. Thus, if you use the same device to connect AirPods1 and 2 respectively, and then repeat the “wear” and “take down” actions, the second generation of AirPods is usually the one that responds faster.
3.Sound Quality
Sound quality is an important indicator for evaluating a headset. Apple officially confirmed that the sound quality of AirPods1 and 2 is exactly the same.
In terms of sound quality, AirPods is better than wired headphones with the same price and even lower price. However, in the family of wireless Bluetooth headsets, the sound quality of AirPods is very good, even among the best. It’s definitely not just an earpiece.
