Our Opinion
With the above method, you can connect Airpods to Android which is as simple as connecting Airpods to Mac. While AirPods can be connected to Android device, not all of its functionality works the same as like the iOS pairing. We found AirPods not supporting automatic pausing, switching between apps, etc., on Android. Also, the double-tap feature will become a play or pause button.
