Apple today officially unveiled the all-new AirPods 5. Featuring active noise cancellation (ANC) technology in an open-ear design, these new earbuds combine upgraded sound quality, smart features, and a more competitive price to deliver an unprecedented user experience. AirPods 5 are available for pre-order starting today and will officially launch at select retail locations worldwide on September 18.

Apple introduces AirPods 5 for a smarter, more immersive listening experience.
Active noise cancellation has always been one of users’ favorite features, whether resting during a long flight, immersing in the world of music, or focusing on work—it effectively shuts out environmental distractions. With a brand-new multi-port acoustic design and advanced computational audio algorithms, AirPods 5 delivers up to 50% better noise cancellation than AirPods 4.
In addition to better ANC performance, the new-generation Transparency mode also renders surrounding sounds and voices more naturally, allowing users to stay aware of their environment while enjoying music. Meanwhile, Adaptive Audio adjusts the balance between noise cancellation and transparency in real time based on usage context, while Conversation Awareness automatically lowers media volume when it detects the user speaking, making conversations easier and more natural.
AirPods 5 incorporates acoustic technology concepts from the AirPods Pro series and is comprehensively optimized for the open-ear design. The new multi-port acoustic architecture, paired with next-generation adaptive equalization, delivers a more consistent listening experience across different ear shapes, bringing sound that is richer, clearer, and more detailed. Additionally, the upgraded personalized spatial audio makes the soundstage more immersive and dynamic—whether you’re watching movies, listening to concert recordings, or diving into game content, you’ll feel a stronger sense of surround envelopment.

Paired with an iPhone that supports Apple Intelligence, AirPods 5 can serve as a user’s all-day intelligent assistant. The new Siri AI offers more natural, fluid conversation capabilities, understanding personalized context and content—including messages, emails, photos, and calendar information—and can directly assist with a variety of tasks. For example, users can ask Siri to play a song recommended by a friend, or plan a navigation route directly based on reservation details in an email. Beyond a more natural and emotionally expressive voice experience, the latest voice recognition system further enhances audio capture accuracy, ensuring user commands are precisely recognized even in complex environments.
Siri AI also seamlessly integrates with Apple’s vast app ecosystem, allowing users to send WhatsApp messages, play Audible audiobooks, or operate other common apps directly through voice. AirPods’ head gesture controls have also been upgraded, letting users respond to Siri silently with a simple nod or shake of the head, making interactions more intuitive and natural.

With real-time translation powered by Apple Intelligence, AirPods 5 makes cross-language communication easier. After setting up the translation feature and downloading the corresponding languages, users can start real-time translation via the AirPods controls, voice commands, or quick actions on iPhone. The system instantly converts conversation content into the user’s preferred language, making international travel, business exchanges, and daily communication smoother. Combined with active noise cancellation and computational audio, it maintains a clear and fluent translation experience even in noisy environments.

To meet the needs of advanced users, Apple also introduced AirPods 5 with a wireless charging case. This is the first time Apple has added a force sensor and sliding volume control to the open-ear AirPods line. Users can simply swipe up or down along the stem to adjust the volume quickly and precisely, making operation more intuitive and convenient. In terms of battery life, the new battery design allows AirPods 5 to deliver up to 5 hours of playback on a single charge with Active Noise Cancellation enabled, about 1 hour more than AirPods 4. With the charging case, total battery life reaches up to 22 hours.
The wireless charging case supports Apple Watch chargers, Qi wireless chargers, and USB-C charging, offering users more flexible and convenient charging options.

Customers in the United States and more than 65 other countries and regions can pre-order AirPods 5 today for $129 (US), with availability in stores starting Friday, September 18.

Even after switching to the latest iPhone18, scams won’t automatically disappear.

The security mechanisms of new iPhones become more comprehensive every year, but nowadays more scams aren’t directly attacking the phone—they’re trying to get “you yourself to click on it.”Fake Apple account alerts, insufficient iCloud storage, credit card payment failures, convenience store package redelivery… As long as you enter your account, password, or credit card information on a fraudulent website, even the newest phone can’t help you tell whether the other party is a scammer.
Besides your own phone, don’t forget your parents at home who use iPhones and iPads. You can install “Trend Micro Mobile Security” for them to help filter suspicious text messages, check for malicious and fraudulent URLs, and add an extra security confirmation when they encounter unfamiliar QR codes or suspicious links.You can upgrade to the latest phone, but your anti-fraud awareness should be upgraded along with it.
