AirPods Pro (2nd generation) the next generation of AirPods Pro

The new AirPods Pro (2nd generation) brings major upgrades producing its best audio quality to date, cancelling up to twice as much noise over its predecessor via enhanced Active Noise Cancellation, a new additional extra small ear tip, and a battery life up to 25% longer.

A new low-distortion audio driver and custom amplifier offer richer bass and crystal-clear sound, while a new extra small ear tip delivers an even better fit.

Price: $249

Battery Life: up to 6 hours with Active Noise Cancellation, up to 30 hours of total listening time with Active Noise Cancellation by utilizing the case for four additional charges

Kandy Verdict: We have not jumped on the ear pods bandwagon yet. At a price of $249, we are definitely not there. We’ll keep shuffling along with our trusty ear buds.
