Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C review: A glimpse into the future?

The big story may be the updated hardware with USB-C and MagSafe charging, but the best things about Apple's new AirPods Pro are also coming to the last-gen.

Excellent noise canceling Best conversation mode we've tested Solid audio quality Capable of wireless lossless audio Yes, USB-C

Best features only for Apple products Still no biofeedback

“Look past the case of the Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C, and you'll see wireless audio's future.”

Apple AirPods Pro 2 review: great buds get even better

Apple has done it again with the second-gen AirPods Pro. They keep their $249 price, but improve in almost every way, including class-leading noise canceling.

Excellent noise cancellation Top-notch transparency Very good sound quality Great call quality Fun charging case features

Not ideal for Android Still no EQ adjustments

“There's simply no better option for anyone with Apple devices.”

Review: Apple AirPods Pro 2nd Gen USB-C (2023)

Apple's earbuds now have USB-C and improved durability, but new software features mean last-gen owners won't miss out.

Look and feel identical to the old pair. IP54 sweat- and dust-resistance rating. Slightly improved audio. USB-C charging. Improved codec for use with Apple’s upcoming Vision Pro headset. Comfortable fit. Same excellent noise canceling.

No change to battery life or repairability.

Apple AirPods Pro 2 Review: The Best Lightweight Earbuds You Can Buy

With better sound, active noise canceling and battery life than their predecessor, the AirPods Pro 2 deliver exceptionally good performance for their size.

Significantly improved sound and noise canceling ; Powered by Apple's new H2 chip ; Better battery life (6 hours) ; Upgraded microphones ; Charging case has U1 chip and built-in speaker for Find My ; New swipe volume controls ; Adaptive transparency...

Basically the same design as previous model ; No high-resolution audio ; No XL ear tips

Apple AirPods Pro (second-gen) review: same look, better everything else

Apple's second-generation AirPods Pro improve upon the original pair with more powerful active noise cancellation, refined sound quality, and a more useful case that features a built-in speaker.

Much better noise cancellation ; New volume control works great ; Improved sound quality and clarity ; Case has speaker and pinpoint location finding

Same old design ; Lightning connector (hopefully for the last time) ; Sound is improved but not top tier ; No major new software features

Even so, the AirPods Pro aren’t necessarily the standout they once were, now flanked by serious contenders from Apple’s tech foes. On day one, they’re not the best-sounding wireless earbuds you can buy, nor are they class-leading in ANC thanks to Bose....

AirPods Pro 2 review: Practically perfect, minor flaws and all

Personalized Spatial Audio fine-tunes 3D sound to your hearing ; Stronger, smarter ANC modes ; Impeccable controls ; Distinctly enriched soundstage ; Higher battery life ; MagSafe charging case supports Find My (AirPods)

Design is mostly unchanged ; Buggy performance with non-iOS devices ; Lanyard costs extra

New features, intelligible ANC, and personalized 3D sound make Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 their best wireless earbuds ever.

Apple AirPods Pro (2022) Review: Refinement That's Not For Everybody

Apple's new AirPods Pro (2022) have plenty of improvements over their predecessors, but only some smartphone users should consider an upgrade.

Improved audio performance and battery life ; Active Noise Cancellation is excellent ; Case now fully supports Find My

Spatial Audio still feels gimmicky ; Non-Apple people need not apply

AirPods Pro 2 review: Closer to perfection

Here's what Apple's new AirPods Pro 2, also known as AirPods Pro (2nd generation), are all about...

Exceptional sound with Spatial Audio on ; Surreal ANC ; Light and comfortable ; A touch gesture for volume control, finally ; Case lanyard loop and speaker are a good new addition ; Case now magnetically snaps to MagSafe chargers, which is convenient

Only one color option, still glossy too; a matte variant would've been nice for a change ; Case still has a Lightning port, not USB Type-C ; Microphone quality isn't quite "Pro"
