The second generation of Apple AirPods Pro Dropped to under $200 on a deal from Amazon. Normally $250, AirPods Pro are currently discounted by $60, bringing the price down to just $190. This is the price we saw during Amazon’s Big Spring Sale. AirPods Pro offer a number of advanced features over standard AirPods, including active noise cancellation when you want to shut out the world and an impressive transparency mode when you want to hear your surroundings.
The second generation AirPods Pro came out in 2022 and brought Apple’s H2 chip to the headphones for a noticeable performance boost. It offers Adaptive Audio that will automatically switch between Active noise cancellation and transparency mode depending on what’s going on around you. With Conversation Alert, they can lower the volume when you’re talking and make other people’s voices easier to hear.
We gave this version of AirPods Pro and this is one of our options in the market. The second-generation AirPods Pro are dust, sweat, and water resistant, so they should hold up well to workouts and achieve better battery life than the previous generation. They can get about six hours of battery life with features like ANC enabled, and that goes up to 30 hours with the charging case. Apple says that taking AirPods Pro out of the box for 5 minutes will give you an extra hour of listening or talking time.
AirPods Pro also offer Personal Spatial Audio with head tracking for more immersive listening when you’re watching TV or a movie. Although, the gesture controls that come with this generation of headphones can take some getting used to. With AirPods Pro, you can adjust the volume by sliding the touch control.
