All new H1 chips deliver better and faster connectivity that gives 2 times faster when switching between devices and 1.5 times faster connection times when you need to attain phone calls.
Speech detecting accelerometer and beamāforming microphones form the best combination that gives the best listening and talking experience. Simple double tap option to play or skip forward the music.
Now letās talk about sound quality. With the upgraded H1 chips overall sound quality became better. They have made everything decent. Decent bass and treble, Better clarity in sound, in the mid-tones they performed good. For podcasts airpods are perfect but the real issue comes when you talk about isolation of sound, itās a little bit disappointing.
The second generation gives extra loudness compared to the 1st. If you notice the 1st generation airpods you will get that apple believes in natural and neutral sound balance. They intentionally avoid artificial bass boosting or treble enhancement. A single word is enough if you ask me about the sound quality of second generation, āDecent soundā.
