A recent review by TechCrunch showcased the capabilities of the AIrPods, the review states that Apple's new Bluetooth earbuds are far more superior that the standard pair of earbuds. The Apple AirPods has a range of 45 to 50 feet or longer if in an open field and 35 feet indoors. Although the audio quality is not the best in the market, the volume is incredibly loud.
The only downside of the review was the function of the accelerometer's limited functions which is for hanging up the phone or activating Siri through double tap gestures.

Apple has really proved that their products are still superior when it comes to quality with the release of this product.
