Surprise! Apple Announces New AirPods Pro with Active Noise Cancellation

Today, in a surprise announcement, Apple unveiled the next iteration of its best-selling AirPods series: the AirPods Pro. Sporting a fresh redesign, Active Noise Cancellation, and plenty of audio-friendly features, the latest AirPods appear more than worthy of the new “Pro” moniker.

Previous generations of AirPods were celebrated for their comfort and fit. The AirPods Pro builds upon that reputation with a brand-new design that features a lightweight, unobtrusive body with interchangeable eartips. The eartips come in three different sizes that are designed to match the contours of your ear.This design allows the tips to create a better seal, which not only improves comfort and security, but also enhances the listening experience by improving the immersive quality of your music.

In addition to the eartips, Apple also equipped the AirPods Pro with a new vent system that’s meant to equalize the pressure. This should reduce any discomfort you might experience from wearing the AirPods for an extended period of time. Like its predecessors, the new AirPods Pro are also sweat- and water-resistant, meaning they’re great for runners, gym-goers, or anyone who leads an active lifestyle (or is frequently caught in the rain).
