The AirPods Pro 2 (second generation) are Apple’s high-end wireless earbuds, building on the success of the original AirPods Pro with improvements in sound quality, active noise cancellation, and spatial audio features. One of the notable new features is a small display integrated into the charging case, which offers better functionality and usability compared to the previous model.
Key Features:
- Improved Active Noise Cancellation (ANC):
The AirPods Pro 2 boasts even more effective noise cancellation, reducing external sounds to a greater degree. Apple’s new H2 chip enhances the ANC performance, offering a more immersive listening experience. - Adaptive Transparency Mode:
In addition to the ANC, the second-gen AirPods Pro also features an Adaptive Transparency Mode that adjusts the level of ambient sound, allowing you to hear essential noises like traffic or voices without sacrificing clarity. - Sound Quality:
The H2 chip also enables improved audio performance, delivering deeper bass, clearer mids, and a more balanced sound profile. Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking is supported, which creates a 3D audio experience when listening to compatible content. - Touch Controls:
The AirPods Pro 2 introduces touch-sensitive volume control directly on the stem of the earbuds. This allows you to adjust the volume by swiping up or down, without needing to touch your device. - Enhanced Find My Feature:
The AirPods Pro 2 includes a built-in Find My feature, which can help you locate them more easily if lost. This is especially helpful with the charging case, which now features a built-in speaker that can play a sound when prompted by the Find My app. - Personalized Spatial Audio:
Using the TrueDepth camera on your iPhone, the AirPods Pro 2 can create a personalized spatial audio profile based on the shape of your ears, offering a more tailored listening experience. - Improved Battery Life:
The AirPods Pro 2 offer up to 6 hours of listening time with ANC on, and the charging case provides multiple additional charges for a total of around 30 hours of use. - Charging Case with Built-in Display:
The most unique feature of the AirPods Pro 2 is the charging case with a small built-in display. The display provides useful information such as the battery status of the case and the individual earbuds, which can be easily checked without needing to connect to a device. Additionally, this new display enhances the experience of finding the case or checking its status quickly.
