This may have to do with the signal power put out by each AirPod. One site in particular has noted that AirPods transmit at power levels equivalent to an Apple Airport base station. I wish there were more data out there corroborating these claims, though.

Note: I own AirPods and use them regularly at the gym. That is to say, I'm not afraid of my own AirPods, but acknowledge that they broadcast pretty loudly.
- duskwuff 8y agoThe "field strength meter" results quoted in that article are nonsense. No units, no frequency, no notes on usage...
- gmac 8y agoI find it very hard to credit that the AirPods, which transmit a few metres powered by a really tiny battery, would put out so much more power than a phone, which may transmit hundreds of metres powered by a very much bigger battery. That said, I own AirPods, I am surprised by how great they are, but I rarely wear them because the radiation worries me.
