Apple AirPods 5 Bring Stronger ANC And New Volume Controls – Channelnews
On Wednesday, Apple CEO John Ternus introduced the fifth-generation AirPods at the company's latest event, with both variants available for preorder Today ahead of the Sept 18th launch.
Featuring a redesigned acoustic architecture and next-generation adaptive equalizer, the AirPods deliver 50% noise reduction in louder environments, which Apple claims is the "best ANC on the market" for open-ear design.
Pricing for the AirPods starts at $129 for the base model, while the version with a Wireless Charging Case costs $149 and provides five hours of playback—one hour more than the previous generation.
Integration with Apple services includes upgraded AI-powered Siri and Live Translation capabilities, while support for Apple Watch enhances connectivity across the Apple ecosystem for users.
There is currently no sign of the redesigned AirPods Pro, though those earbuds are expected to feature built-in cameras for AI-powered monitoring and arrive next year.
Apple has introduced the new generation of its popular headphones, bringing advanced functions into the entry-level segment. In addition to improved audio technology and artificial intelligence, pricing is particularly surprising.
