Here is our experience with the new AirPods Pro 2 and what we feel about the features and the great ANC that Apple talks about on the stage.

Overview and Specifications

The new AirPods Pro 2 is better than the regular AirPods. Well, that’s it. Let’s jump to our review of the all-new Apple AirPods Pro 2. The all-new Apple AirPods Pro 2 stands out from the rest of the truly wireless earbuds that are available at different price points. There is a slight change in the case (do not use your old AirPods Pro case for the new one), and the U1 chip is worth experiencing. Before we move to more details, let’s take a look at what’s packed under the hood of the Apple AirPods Pro 2: The battery power and the connection spec kept the same. However, the new AirPods Pro 2 supports the Apple Watch MagSafe Charger. So you have three new options to charge your AirPods Pro Case, including the lightning cable that comes with it.

Apple AirPods Pro 2: Design

At first glance, you won’t find anything different between the original Apple AirPods Pro and the AirPods Pro 2. But, if you look closely, you will see a few differences that will easily help you identify which ones are the AirPods Pro 2. For starters, there is an LED indicator at the front of the charging case. With the new lanyard loop holder, you can now add a lanyard to hand your AirPods Pro 2 case to your bag. Another new feature that distinguishes the AirPods Pro 2 from other Apple AirPods is the speaker that has been added to the case. This is handy when you might have misplaced the charging case and need to find the charging case. Out of this speaker, you will hear audible alerts when the device has been paired, low battery levels, and even audible alerts when you want to search for the charging case. The speaker is designed to make an audible alert, and the integrated U1 chain helps you to find the lost case just like the AirTag, with high precision. At the bottom of the case, you will find the charging port to juice up the charging case and your AirPods Pro 2.

AirPods Pro 2: Audio Features

Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 comes with its custom-designed Apple driver and a custom AirPods Pro-designed dynamic range amplifier. One of the reasons why people prefer the Apple AirPods is because of the active noise cancellation. With the new AirPods Pro 2, you can expect 2x more active noise cancellation thanks to the Automatic Noise Canceling microphones at the outer tip of the AirPods. Apart from the active noise cancellation, the new AirPods Pro 2 now feature silicon tips in four different sizes which will not only fit your ear perfectly and keep the AirPods from falling out but will also prevent any outside sound or noise from interrupting any calls or audio that you are listening to via the AirPods Pro 2. With the help of Adaptive Transparency, you can eliminate a number of noises from the outside environment. Apple claims that the new AirPods Pro 2 can reduce noise at 48,000 times per second.

This is because the AirPods Pro 2 can easily detect if the AirPods have been removed or put into the ears and then plays or pauses the music based on whether the AirPods are.  You also have the motion and speech-detecting accelerometer that help in allowing you to swipe on the stem of the AirPods to control your music and ask Siri to perform a few tasks without you having to use your iPhone.

Siri and ANC controls are customizable for individual AirPods stems. You can set one AirPods to get Siri and the other for ANC controls. Similarly, you can change the swipe up/down speed in AirPods’ Accessibility Setting.

AirPods Pro 2 vs. AirPods Pro (Should I Upgrade?)

Automatic Noise Cancellation (ANC): The ANC is not new in AirPods. However, Apple did an amazing job of introducing a more powerful ANC expense in AirPods Pro 2. The ANC is superb compared to the AirPods Pro version. In addition, the low frequency (bass) has got a bit of a boost on the new AirPods Pro 2. Editor’s Note: Based on our experience, the ANC was not good in high frequencies. The cancellation is not working, especially if you have any high-frequency sound or ambient noise. Other than that, the ANC works great with the new AirPods Pro 2. AirPods Case Speaker: The speakers are a new addition to the AirPods Pro case. These are pretty handy when we use the “Find Me” feature with AirPods to find out your missing AirPods case. Also, the case makes a sound when placed in a charger and reaches a low battery.

This will help you find the missing case with a high-precision location just like you finds your AirTags.

It is a nice free addition from Apple, where you can have the customized emoji on your iPhone. The spatial audio and other software features are also added in AirPods Pro and Pro 2.
