AirPods: The microphone, true weak point of the Apple wireless earphones

magictr — Fri, 04 Aug 2017 17:19:15 +0000

Since their release at the end of 2016, the AirPods are not very accessible. Their availability is limited in the shops but if you have the opportunity to test these wireless headphones, you will probably regret the quality of their microphone.

At the time of these written lines, the delivery time of the AirPods are always as long. Huge commercial success or production difficulties? A bit of both, no doubt. These headphones are, in any case, the happiness of the drafting for several months. Thanks to their smallness and the W1 chip of Apple, AirPods are very effective. But even if I’m in love with these earphones, I can also find faults. If a lot of these gaps have been filled with the likable BeatsX , I still remain an absolute fan of the AirPods. On the other hand, I hate their microphone!

The AirPods are perfect, but their microphone is indecent
As soon as there is a lot of ambient noise, making a phone call from the AirPods becomes really complicated. The microphone becomes very average, as if talking from a chasm. Worse, the EirPods, the big brothers of AirPods, have a more efficient microphone. It is a shame given the final quality of the last “toy” of the Cupertino firm. It is hoped that Apple is well aware of this, and that it will do whatever is necessary to improve the quality of the microphone of these wireless headphones. But in the meantime, the design of the iPhone 8 becomes more precise in the biggest calms.

sivertime — Wed, 07 Jun 2017 14:59:17 +0000

IOS 11 teaches us a lot about the iPhone 8. We now know with almost certainty that it will be equipped with an OLED screen and a night mode.
Tim Cook and Craig Federighi have unveiled iOS 11 on Monday at WWDC 2017 , but have not said anything about the iPhone 8. The smartphone is not expected before the next school year, Take place during the month of September. The new version of the mobile OS apple nevertheless gives some clues regarding the main innovations of the next phone. One can thus almost say that the iPhone 8 will have the right to a night mode. It is even possible to test it on the first beta of iOS 11. Simply go to Settings> General> Accessibility> Adapt display> Invert colors. With this option, the software interface abandons white to black. Unlike iOS 10, the shades of the images are well preserved.
The black takes its quarters on iOS 11. In addition to an almost official night mode, some applications have been rethought to be much darker. One can mention, for example, the app “Calculator” which abandons the big keys for buttons more round. This Apple effort to put black inside iOS 11 does not happen randomly. Indeed, persistent rumors want the apple brand to equip its iPhone 8 with an OLED screen, like the next LG V30 . This technology saves battery with dark interfaces. The company of Cupertino could thus present some innovations of last minutes for iOS 11 in order to perfectly complete the iPhone 8 next September. What do you think ?
