Introducing its second generation of wireless headphones, Apple on Wednesday, 20 March, launched new AirPods designed to deliver more talk time.
The new AirPods come with either a standard charging case or a new wireless charging case.
They will be available to order through Apple authorised re-sellers later this spring, the company said.
Powered by Apple-designed H1 chip, developed specifically for headphones, the new AirPods now feature the convenience of "Hey Siri" – meaning users could invoke the assistant without touching the earbud.
"The world's best wireless headphones just got even better with the new AirPods. They are powered by the new Apple-designed H1 chip which brings an extra hour of talk time, faster connections, hands-free 'Hey Siri' and the convenience of a new wireless battery case," said Phil Schiller, Apple's Senior Vice President of Worldwide Marketing.
