Questions & answers

Do the AirPods 5 work with an Android phone?

Apple lists iOS, iPadOS and macOS as supported systems. The manufacturer does not specify Android support; the earbuds connect over Bluetooth 5.3, but the extra Apple features are tied to Apple devices.

How long does the battery last?

Apple states up to 4 hours of continuous listening with noise cancelling on and up to 20 hours in total with the charging case. The case charges with a USB-C cable; no power adapter is included.

What does IP57 mean?

The 5 stands for dust protection and the 7 for protection against brief immersion in water. Apple specifies resistance to dust, sweat and water, so workouts and rain will not harm the earbuds.
