Best Answer:I believe they both have mic + controls. (e.g., tap to pause/play; double-tap for Siri).
You can also remove either EarPod to pause audio (to speak to a cashier, for example), and audio will begin playing again when you return it to your ear!- Answered by Jason R from Flagstaff

Do the AirPods filter out background noise during playback?
I exercise in a crowded gym with plenty of noise and currently use bulky noise-canceling headphones in order to hear the music clearly and without turning up the volume to high levels simply to overcome the ambient noise.

Will the air buds stay in your ears during a workout or a run?
- Asked by Jed S from Farmington

- Flag as inappropriate (Will the air buds stay in your ears during a workout or a run?)
AnswerYou shouldn't need to worry about them falling out of your ears, its like the EarPods offered with the iPhones. They only fall out unless you tug on the cord on accident and the AirPods don't have a cord, so they can't fall out. They are specifically made to stay in the ear in a comfortable way.

Best Answer:
Apple AirPods require an active iCloud account and macOS Sierra, iOS 10, or watchOS 3 to be used. Therefore, the AirPods will work on previous iPhone models as well.

How loud are they? How well will they stay in my ear? Would you suggest them if i were going on a run?
I've had wireless headphone before and they simply were not nearly as loud as i would of liked them to be. Will they be louder then your average pair of wireless headphones?
I also have had trouble keeping pods like these to stay in my ear. I would imagine these would be even tougher. Would you suggest using these if i was going to go on a run?- Asked by Christopher M from Astoria
