AirPods inside a Washing Machine ?!

Apple AirPods hit the company’s retail stores yesterday and sold out soon after. With lines forming outside some of the stores, there is no denying that despite their high price, the consumer interest among AirPods are pretty high. The first impressions of the wireless earbuds have also been overwhelmingly positive, with customers appreciating their ease of use and quick charging times.

Just like our smartphones though, earphones are something that we regularly use in our daily life. This means that they are prone to be dropped, go through a wash cycle with your clothes, and more. Apple does not comment on the reliability of the AirPods, but considering how expensive they are and the amount of tech they pack, it was assumed that the AirPods are not as reliable as their wired siblings. Putting your fears to rest, YouTuber EverythingApplePro has done a drop and water test on the AirPods from which the wireless earbuds emerged unscathed. The drop test consisted of dropping the AirPods from heights of up to 10ft while they were inside their case as well as outside of it. In all cases, the AirPods emerged unscathed, with only the case having some visual damage due to the drops.
