The second generation of AirPods Pro have been announced with a new wireless lossless codec and improved battery life.
At Apple's iPhone event, it also debuted new AirPods Pro. Apple didn't do much to change the overall design of the new AirPods Pro — the speaker grills, stem, and other small aspects were altered slightly, though.
The charging case has been revised to include a lanyard, plus it can now be charged using the Apple Watch charger. It also features a larger speaker for when the case is being searched for with Find My.
Although the AirPods themselves feature the same basic stem design, they now come with new ear tips. And the stems now include touch controls.
Apple says that the new AirPods Pro bring extended battery life that will enable up to six hours on a single charge. The charging case enables up to 30 hours of use and can now be engraved with Memoji.
The new AirPods Pro have an updated processor for advanced audio processing, which Apple says provides twice the Active Noise Cancellation of the previous model. It also features Transparency Mode, music reproduction, and 48kHz audio specifically for SharePlay.
AirPods Pro cost $249 and will be available from September 23.
