Wrapping Up…
That’s pretty much done! So, that’s how you can set up and use the separation alerts with your brand new AirPods. While there is a lot to like about the AirPods, what separates them from the rest is the ability to deliver a seamless experience across the Apple ecosystem. That’s probably the biggest reason why they are incredibly popular and have been topping the sales chart right from the word go. With 35% market share, AirPods are by bar far the most loved true wireless earphones. If you are wondering which company comes in at the second spot, let me tell you that it’s none but Apple that has grabbed the second spot as well; courtesy of the impressive Beats branded earphones that boast 16% market share. Though Google Pixel buds and Samsung Galaxy buds have made a lot of ground, they are still nowhere near Apple’s offerings. At least, in terms of sales volume.
