These new AirPods Pro (2nd generation) continue to redefine personal audio by delivering exceptional sound quality, doubling the Active Noise Cancellation compared to their predecessor, introducing an advanced Transparency mode, providing a more immersive Spatial Audio experience, and offering a broader selection of ear tip sizes for an improved fit.
Additionally, the AirPods Pro (2nd generation) have been upgraded with USB-C charging capabilities, enhanced dust resistance, and Lossless Audio compatibility with Apple Vision Pro. With the release of iOS 17, all AirPods Pro (2nd generation) models will gain access to new audio features like Adaptive Audio and Conversation Awareness.
The AirPods Pro (2nd generation) with MagSafe Charging Case (USB-C) can be ordered starting today, with availability in stores beginning on Friday, September 22.
Enhanced Convenience and Durability: The new AirPods Pro now feature a USB-C connector, simplifying the charging process by allowing users to use a single cable for charging Mac, iPad, AirPods, and the iPhone 15 series. Users can even charge AirPods directly using the USB-C connector on the iPhone 15 lineup. Furthermore, the earbuds and case have an improved IP54 rating, providing added dust resistance, and making them suitable for rugged outdoor adventures.
Introducing Lossless Audio with Apple Vision Pro: The AirPods Pro (2nd generation) with MagSafe Charging Case (USB-C) will enable Lossless Audio with ultra-low latency, delivering a top-tier true wireless audio experience when used with Apple Vision Pro. This is achieved through the H2 chip in the latest AirPods Pro and Apple Vision Pro, combined with an innovative wireless audio protocol, resulting in powerful 20-bit, 48 kHz Lossless Audio with significantly reduced audio latency. Once Apple Vision Pro becomes available in the U.S. early next year, users will enjoy an advanced wireless audio experience for entertainment, gaming, FaceTime calls, and more.
New Features with iOS 17: All AirPods Pro (2nd generation) models will gain access to exciting features and capabilities with iOS 17, including:
Adaptive Audio: This innovative listening mode dynamically blends Transparency mode and Active Noise Cancellation, adjusting noise control based on the user’s surroundings. This computational audio feature allows users to stay aware of their environment while reducing distracting background noises, such as office chatter, vacuum noise at home, or the bustling ambience of a coffee shop.
Conversation Awareness: When a user engages in a nearby conversation, whether it’s a quick chat with a colleague or ordering lunch at a cafe, Conversation Awareness automatically lowers the content volume, enhances the voices in front of the user, and reduces background noise.
Personalized Volume: By utilizing machine learning to understand environmental conditions and volume preferences, Personalized Volume fine-tunes the listening experience for users over time.
Better for the Environment: The new AirPods Pro have been designed with sustainability in mind, incorporating various materials and features to minimize their environmental impact. These measures include using 100 per cent recycled rare earth elements in all magnets, 100 per cent recycled gold for plating multiple printed circuit boards, 100 per cent recycled tin in the solder of the main logic board, and 100 per cent recycled aluminium in the hinge.
