Get the AirPods Pro 2 USB-C for $219
While the latest Apple earbuds might look just like the previous generation, this new generation introduces a USB-C port, enhanced sound quality with an all-new H2 chip paired with fresh algorithms and speakers.
Adaptive Transparency, which helps reduce bothersome noise when Transparency mode is enabled, is included, and the active noise cancellation (ANC) has also been enhanced. Users can now set up a personalized listening profile (available for these AirPods Pro 2, as well as Gen1, AirPods Gen3, Beats Fit Pro, and AirPods Max, with an iPhone equipped with Face ID and iOS 16) by analyzing the shape of the ears using an iPhone’s camera.
Enhanced ANC, Adaptive Transparency, and Improved Sound Quality
The AirPods Pro 2 come with XS-sized ear tips to fit more users and offer a battery life of 6 hours with ANC (a 33% increase from the previous generation), which extends to 30 hours via the charging case. Conveniently, you can slide your finger along the stem to adjust the volume, a feature that many users have requested.
The UWB U1 chip is also included for easier tracking of the earbuds (each emitting a distinct sound) through the Find My app. The case has a side attachment for hooking a strap, supports MagSafe, and wireless charging (including with the Apple Watch’s magnetic puck). Finally, the AirPods Pro 2 USB-C are the only AirPods compatible with the major new features of iOS 18, and they also offer reduced latency and lossless audio when connected to Vision Pro.
