  • Improved 6 hours of battery life.
  • “High bandwidth connectivity” (H2 chip).

Cupertino giant Apple updated its AirPods Pro after its launch in November 2019. Apple deemed them the most popular headphones worldwide, and it gets even better.

The 2nd generation AirPods Pro features the latest H2 chip with a low distorting audio driver and personalized Spatial Audio.

The Active Noise Cancellation is a major difference between the regular AirPods and AirPods Pro. The Gen 2 AirPods Pro has 2x ANC with Advanced computation audio.

There’s also a new ‘Adaptive transparency’ mode that reduces High decibel noise, like construction. Another new feature is the volume touch controls with light swipes on either bud.

The battery life is now 6 hours battery life on a single charge and 30 hours with the charging case.
