Apple AirPods

Apple introduced AirPods, new wireless earbuds that are 'looking to change the way people listen to music', in 2016.

Apple's AirPods have been flying off the shelves since they were introduced, but they're available to buy via Apple's Store online and major retailers such as Best Buy.
Apple HomePod

Apple's HomePod is here to compete against Amazon's Echo and Google Home. Combining Apple Music and Siri, Apple's HomePod is focused on providing an immersive listening experience to music and smartphone enthusiasts.
