“DUH evolution”??? “DUH iPod”???
I know I'm not the only person who'd be happy if Apple at LEAST offered airpods in different colors!!
Add a heart rate monitor and this is perfect for people who do fitness who don’t want an Apple Watch especially for those who need to rest weights on their wrist during workouts with kettlebells.
Thanks for the update Bridget!
With regard to sustainability, I say boo ! I just replaced my 2016 MBP because it would no longer receive OS updates from . I found a workaround called Open Core Legacy Patcher and Ventura ran fine on the machine, no thanks to . Had I traded my machine in to , I don’t know what would have become of it. I sold it to a private party. There’s no good reason for to nudge users of their hardware, including iPhones, to abandon their devices prior to the end of their useful life. That’s planned obsolescence in an aggressive manner imo.
lame , this is exactly the reason I dont watch cnet anymore.Seriously presenting old news like new news
Looks for seeing more update it very interesting for everything’s apple production i am a fan 100% love it very much.
I see a lot of people with beats solo headsets (especially while at the gym). I would be surprised if the new Airpods were not something along those lines. A smaller, on-ear airpods max
Bridget – setup your own channel! You're great!
Earth Day: I wish Apple would bring back target display mode for iMacs. The displays on iMacs out live the usefulness of the computers by 4-8 years. While it is possible to convert older iMacs into standalone monitors it requires taking them apart and installing (questionable) controller boards.
Apple why did you take this away?
Wish we could see Bridget host all the CNET content as she is by far the best presenter on the channel.
JBL already released a product like this
❤❤❤❤❤❤
The nano was and still is a very sexy product. I probably will be using it til the day I die…
A lot of patents don't mean anything, other than to make sure that no one else can do it. I do not think it will ever become a product since the "business model" is to suck consumers into their ecosystem. We see this with Google, Apple, Microsoft, and other software companies
Génial … Merci … Simply the Best !!!
I'm still waiting for the 18 carrat gold plated AirPods that cost $10,000 … each! I'm perpetually fascinated by the audacity of Apple. I'm happy with £20 wired headphones personally, but I tell you, there is celebs out there that would definitely buy them.
Hmmmm… it seems you like the color orange Bridget. I can relate!!! 😅 love the vids! 😊
Bring back CNET Update with Bridget again as the host and possibly have other as well, give TechLinked some competition!
This could be real. Apple is bring back the IPod. I think Apple will discontinue the wired only charging case. The base case will have wireless and wired charging by default, the new upgraded case will be a the IPod Case for AirPod. Basically I think it could have everything the iPod could do plus charge your AirPods. I think Apple has found that there are people who want to leave their phone at home while running or jogging or in their lockers at the gym. They likely found that many of their Apple Watch users, don’t use their watch for music when iphone is not paired. These users are unaware that their watch can store hours of music on its on board memory and no phone or cell service is necessary. For these people the iPod case will give a familiar functionality and nostalgia back to simpler days of music listening with no iPhone required.
We need colors !!! And the shape is tired already!
Oladance headphone user here, dunno what's funnier the whole android user having to go to crApple to update the ear buds or the ear wax build up. xD
Wohoo! A brand new video from you. You make my day. I don't expect a hit from the screen put in the charging unit. Does Apple think that the charging station would replace the phone itself? I expect from the new earbuds that they stay in the ears and instead of focusing on counter noise, a solution is found to eliminate the thump-thump noises that your own body produces when walking and running. Annoying voice. Ah, and last. Kisses. You are such a great lively person.
Necromancy with the iPod
Sleep headphones— for laying on your pillow while listening to podcasts
Smaller that fits in your ear
Solar on case maybe
For real CNET JBL Tour Pro 2 they already did this what kind Tech news Channel this CNET go down 👎
Price for AirPods 📈

This video ends with talk of “cleaning your ears” and a shot of someone sticking a pencil in her ear. Please do not do this. You should not put anything down your ear canal.
I like the touchscreen headphones. I don't think it's what we need, touchscreen headphones in general, but it's a cool idea.
JBL has a touchscreen on its case. Apple does it again. 🙄
in a serious note i have no interest in airpods ipods really but am going to seriously consider the Airpods Max 2 assuming they keep the same super high build quality
thank you for the malibu stacey reference… one note dman busts that one out all the time… most recently for the yellow iphone 14!! . hey hey hey dont judge… Andrew OHara from Apple Insider thought it was funny haha
Real talk? Not your lingo, come on.
coffee much?
Dumb dumb dumb
Guess Bridget's favorite color
I don’t know… why
This was pretty neutral. I’m a fan of the absurd reports of how this will revolutionize the way people listen to music …. Controls for your music that you have on your phone or watch … and most of which you can do from the AirPods already.
I already have an apple watch ultra, air pods pro, and an iphone. I have no need for what ever that is.
🤯
Ooh. So they're look like what JBL Tour Pro 2 did. Had a touchscreen on the case. Nice
So its basically an JBL Tour Pro 2 but for
Fire for having emotional oranges – personal playing on those bad boys
Would love if Apple made a dumb phone
