Back in 1979, Mercedes launched a stripped-down, go-anywhere SUV built to survive anything. In the last 40 years, it’s somehow done just that.

Apple doesn’t release numbers, but one industry analyst estimated last winter that up to 16 million AirPods were sold in 2018—and predicted that Apple could sell 55 million this year, and up to 110 million in 2020. The numbers seem to insinuate that AirPods might be Apple’s best-selling product. And that bit of educated guesswork was made before Apple announced its upgraded AirPods this week: longer battery life, faster connections, “Hey Siri” powers (no need to tap or press a button to summon the A.I. butler), and a wireless case that you can get included (for $199, $40 more than the cord-charged-only setup) or separately (for $79) to upgrade older AirPods. Try to order a pair right now and shipments will be delayed—already by more than a week, just two days after they went on sale.
