This matches the current price of the AirPods (4th generation) with ANC, usually $70 more expensive. However, the AirPods Pro remain the superior choice, boasting noticeably better sound quality and noise cancellation.
Apple AirPods Pro for $169.99
$249.00 $169.99 at Amazon
The AirPods Pro deliver a best-in-class "truly wireless" audio experience for iPhone users. Their in-ear design, combined with superior active noise cancellation, a low-distortion driver and amplifier, and the powerful Apple H2 chip, results in exceptional sound. Enjoy convenient features like Adaptive Transparency Mode for enhanced situational awareness and Conversation Mode for crystal-clear conversations. This second-generation model upgrades to a more versatile USB-C charging port and includes a MagSafe charging case.
AirPods Pro vs. AirPods (4th generation) with ANC:
While both offer active noise cancellation, the AirPods Pro's superior sound quality and noise reduction are undeniable, justifying its higher retail price. The AirPods (4th generation) with ANC employs an open-ear design, leading to sound leakage and less effective noise cancellation. The AirPods Pro's in-ear design, with adjustable tips for a secure and customized fit, ensures optimal performance. Unless you strongly prefer an open-ear design, the AirPods Pro offers a significantly better listening experience at this price.
