Apple Airpods - 20,000 yen

Recently I bought these and I love them.

If you were a salesperson, how would you sell them to a customer?

Do you want to buy these? Why or why not?

 

Apple has also released Airpods Pro.

As a salesperson, can you describe the differences between them?

 

Airpods Pro

40,000 yen

Battery: 5 hours

Noise cancelling

waterproof

AirPods

20,000 yen

Battery: 5 hours

 

Which would you recommend I buy?

 

 

Apple Airtag - 16,000 yen for 4

What do you think this is?

The battery lasts a year. It will tell your iphone when you need to change the battery.

 



Can you translate this for me?

見つける天才。

AirTagは、自分の持ち物を見つける簡単な方法。鍵に付けたり、バッグに入れておくだけで、それらを「探す」アプリでいつでも探知できるので安心です。

 

If you can’t find your keys in your house, you can make the airtag beep to help you find them.

Would you buy this?

Do you think these are popular?

 

 

Apple AirTags are in the news almost every week!



Many people believe they can be used to stalk people. What should apple do to prevent this?













Your iphone will notify you if an air tag that is not yours has been close to you for a long time. If you don’t use an iphone, you won’t get this notification.

Air tags will randomly beep to show their location if they are too far from their owner.

Do you think airtags are dangerous?



People who have parents with dementia are buying air tags. Why?







You can put airtags in a wallet or on keys. Dementia patients often forget their phone but often have their wallet or keys on them.


 

People are putting air tags in their suitcases when they fly. Why?






If their luggage gets lost, they can locate it easily.

However… Lufthansa and Air New Zealand recently BANNED airtags saying they must be switched off on flights. Why?

Officially, they say they are worried about batteries catching on fire.

Watches use the same batteries so most people believe passengers were demanding staff look for their luggage which caused more delays for the airline. The airline would rather lose your luggage so the flight can arrive on time

 

Can you think of any other uses for AirTags?

Is this a good way to attach it to your bicycle?
