AirPods Pro Second-Gen ($199.99, originally $249 at Amazon)
In our review, we called AirPods Pro “must-have earbuds” for their excellent audio quality and listening modes that can effectively block out or let in the sound around you. Essentially, if you have an iPhone and are in the Apple ecosystem, you can’t really go wrong.
From looks you might be wondering what changed, but inside the second-gen is Apple’s H2 processor. With over a billion transistors, AirPods Pro can quickly EQ music for your ears, block out loud noises as you try to focus and seamlessly connect with devices.
The updated transparency mode which lets you hear your surroundings, now lowers the volume of aggressively loud sounds. It doesn’t change the tune or skew what it is, but rather makes it less brutal on your ears. For instance, a loud jack hammer while passing a construction site will be lowered.
