If you are an AirPods user who travels a lot, then you would know that it can be annoying to not be able to connect your wireless headphones to in-flight entertainment systems, gym equipments and other audio sources that allow 3.5mm connections.
A new accessory from Twelve South makes it possible for users to connect AirPods to these entertainment systems that only offer wired connections. The accessory that is called AirFly lets you connect to any audio source that requires a wired connection. What makes this particular Bluetooth to 3.5mm adapter different from those already flooding the market is the fact that it works with Apple AirPods, which are one of the most popular wireless headphones out there.
AirFly physically connects to the audio source and then streams the audio to AirPods wirelessly. It runs on battery that can run for 8 hours on a single charge. The overall design of the product seems to match the aesthetics of the AirPods themselves, making its price tag worth it.
The AirFly accessory sells for $39.99 through variety of retailers including TwelveSouth’s own website, Amazon and others.
