How I used the same AirPods for five years straight (and you can, too)
Apple's second-gen AirPods turned five this year, but they're still a solid option for low-cost earbuds, especially given that they're 30% off at Amazon right now.
In fact, many of the most commonly faced problems with the AirPods are related to "debris" getting stuck in sensitive ports, affecting charging or connections, all of which can be mitigated with regular tech hygiene. For around $10, you can fortify your AirPods against the inevitable smacking and smashing they will face at the bottom of a backpack, or when they're wedged in a seat cushion, as well as protect against moisture or impact damage from being dropped. The Apple H1 chip inside the second-generation model supports a fast connection speed for incoming calls and switching between devices, as well as Siri functionality, customizable tap commands, and commendable battery life.
