1. Can you have two pairs of AirPods connected and being used at the same time on an iPhone?

2. Can you have two pairs of AirPods connected, but being used one pair at a time?
 
Duplicate of Using More Than One Set of Airpods

1. No
2. Yes (assuming "Connected' in this case means that you've already done the initial pairing, not that they're both outputting a signal)

Great, regarding #2, I thought maybe since there would be 2 AirPods under my Apple ID and on the same iPhone it would not work.

I didn't think #1 would work, but that would be awesome.

Btw, do you know when the wireless charging AirPods are coming out?
 
Scenario #1 may be possible with Bluetooth 5.0? Correct me if i'm wrong, which I think I am since I recall some prior-gen Android phones having this feature?
 
1 no
2 yes you can have both paired up in setting but only one pair of airpods can be connected ( using ) at a time.
