AirPods Pro 2 is a big improvement over the original model
The 2nd gen. AirPods Pro retains the same design as its predecessor. However, they are better in almost every department, offering excellent sound quality, better ANC, and longer battery life. Apple’s H2 chip powers the AirPods Pro 2, allowing it to handle more advanced fine-tuned noise-canceling algorithms
One significant change on the AirPods Pro (2nd gen.) is the addition of touch-sensitive controls to the stems. This allows you to slide your finger on the stem to adjust the volume.
Apple claims the AirPods Pro 2 last up to six hours on a single charge, an increase of 1.5 hours from the original model. With the bundled charging case, you can extend the runtime to 30 hours. The carrying case is also smarter than before, with a built-in speaker and Find My integration thanks to the U1 chip. This will make it easier to find the AirPods if you misplace them. There’s also a lanyard hole to prevent them from getting lost.
