A no-brainer upgrade over AirPods Pro 2: better fit, improved ANC and sound, longer battery, and heart rate tracking at the same price.

  • Better fit with angled buds and extra XXS tip size
  • Noticeably improved active noise cancellation
  • Improved battery life
  • Heart rate sensing for workouts without an Apple Watch
  • Same $249.99 price as the previous generation
  • Foam-infused tips are mostly silicone, a hybrid rather than true foam
  • Fit may still not work for everyone
  • Upgrade is hard to justify for existing AirPods Pro 2 owners
