What Are AirPods?
Introduced in 2016, AirPods use a range of proprietary Apple technologies to provide an excellent listening experience.
They use an Apple-developed wireless chip to provide high-quality sound.
They’re easy to set up and provide useful controls for your iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
But AirPods are capable of much more.
For example, AirPods have dual optical sensors and accelerometers to detect when they’re actually in your ear.
you could’t use Siri on Apple TV through AirPods.
Siri support on AirPods used with Apple TV is not yet available.
