Some Apple Stores already allow you to revert to test the AirPods before you buy them. This news would not have more importance in another context, but if we consider the reason why something as simple as that was prohibited, the happy COVID-19 pandemic, the truth is that it is to be happy to read the headline.
It has been a year since they began to systematically close all Apple Store around the world due to the pandemic. After being closed for a while, depending on the area, they began to reopen with anti-contagion security measures never seen before. So this simple gesture of being able to try on AirPods in the store is a sign that we are already defeating the virus.
Some Apple Stores are already returning to relative normality, and they are beginning to relax the strict anti-covid measures that have tormented them since their reopening after the confinement period. A sample of this is that in some Apple stores you can even try some AirPods to hear their sound quality or fit in your ear before purchasing.
Apple discontinued letting customers try out the headphones at Apple Stores when the coronavirus it began to spread last year. The company is now allowing some testing in the US and other countries in stores that are open for visits either by appointment or walk-in. Being able to test the AirPods has already been available in certain locations in Asia for months.
China stores were the first
The first to do so were those of China, followed by some other country, where the pandemic has been tightly controlled for some time. Thanks to the intense vaccination campaign against COVID-19 in the United States, it allows certain security concessions against the virus. It should be remembered that almost 50% of the US population is already vaccinated against COVID-19.
Hopefully the headline of the news will soon also be applicable in our country. And not because it is relevant to be able to try on headphones before buying them, because you can buy them online, and if they do not satisfy you, return them, but the very important meaning of the detail, one more that indicates the return to the long-awaited normality.
