There's a reason AirPods always sell out of stock: they're seriously awesome. Sure, everyone might rave about the AirPod Pros, but those can cost a pretty penny. These second-generation AirPods provide a comparable level of sound quality, are easy to use, and just plain look great.

Check out what fans have to say! "We purchased these for our teenage son. They pair with his Apple iPhone. Wireless rechargeable case is so convenient. He has used them for over a year and a half and they still work really good and he uses them EVERY day!" said one dad.

Another user also raved about the feel of the AirPods: "I love the overall look and feel of this product. The sound quality and audio quality both perform very well. They connect very easily across apple devices and doesn't take much to start using them. I thought the product might have been a fake or not real, but I assure you it is. The battery life is just awesome. I can use these anytime of day and travel with them. The product just has a premium feel to them. I love it!"

You can expect roughly three hours of battery life on a single charge, but the case can recharge your AirPods five times. That's nearly a full day of nonstop listening to your favorite tunes or podcasts, while watching content, or listening to that hot new audiobook. Thanks to the Apple H1 chip, these pair easily with your iOS devices — just open the case and you'll be prompted to connect them.

They're durable too. Remember how we said you might forget they're in there? Well, we speak from experience — these AirPods survived a trip through the washing machine in a pants pocket!
