APPLE AIRPODS PRO USB-C $365.70
Last year's iPhone 15 series phones were the first iPhones to feature USB-C ports. At the same time, Apple announced a new version of the AirPods Pro, which now has a USB-C charging port for more convenient charging.

Unsurprisingly, it has deep integration with Apple devices, and one of my favourite features is Automatic Switching.
This allows the AirPods Pro to connect instantly to any Apple device you are using. It's amazing how quickly and accurately it can follow you as you move between all your Apple devices. Think of it as a supercharged version of multipoint.
