Writing is cathartic for her. A happy-go-lucky kind of person, she tries to remain calm and serene through daily life.

In a post on Apple’s Newsroom dated March 20, 2019, Apple introduced its latest 2nd generation AirPods that would be powered by an Apple-designed H1 chip.

Users can, through the hands-free “Hey Siri” functionality, change songs, make phone calls, adjust volume, get directions, and more just by saying “Hey Siri.”

The H1 chip, moreover, accounts for easy and rapid switching between iPhone, iPad, Mac devices, and Apple Watch.

Having the same external design in the white color as found in the previous AirPods, the latest AirPods have the options of a wired charging case ($159) and a wireless charging case ($199), both of which comprise a LED light indicator on the case displaying the charging status.

They can be availed immediately on the Apple website and in the Apple Store app, but they will roll out in Apple stores and select resellers only in the next week. What’s more, orders made on the website and Apple Store app even have the option of free engraving done on the AirPods charging case.
