Apple finally releases wireless headphones

Originally announced at Apple's September Keynote event with the iPhone 7 and the Apple Watch Series 2, the Apple AirPods are finally for sale.

The AirPods were originally going to be released in late October, but were delayed. An Apple spokesperson told TechCrunch back in October, “The early response to AirPods has been incredible. We don’t believe in shipping a product before it’s ready, and we need a little more time before AirPods are ready for our customers.”

The AirPods feature a battery life of over 24 hours, and will work with the iPhones and iPads with iOS 10 or later, and with your Mac computer. The Apple website notes that fifteen minutes in the charging case equals three hours of charging time.

You can buy the AirPods here for $159.

One exciting app that was released at that same event was Super Mario Run. Super Mario Run is an auto-runner game like Temple Run but features everyone's favorite plumber Mario gathering coins and defeating enemies. As soon as the game was announced, fans could flock to the App Store to be notified when the game would come out.

Super Mario Run will be coming out tomorrow (Dec. 15) but dedicated Nintendo fans could make their way to Apple Stores around the country to try the game out before it was officially released.

Recently, Jimmy Fallon tried out Super Mario Run and was even cheered on by the creator of Super Mario Bros, Shigeru Miyamoto. Check it out!
