Hello All, I just got my Air Pods Pro’s in the mail over the weekend. I am impressed with them. The noice canceling feature is interesting and it will take some getting used to. The Transparency mode is really cool. It allows your audio such as music or even Voiceover to be heard with the audio around you ducking under it so you can hear your surroundings. From what I can tell you only lose about 20 mins off of the full charge when either mode is active. You get the same battery life as the original Air Pods. I find the Pros to be much more comfortable and I don’t have any soreness after wearing them for a lengthily listen to my favorite music. They come with 3 different silicone ear tips for a customizable fit. The audio is 100 times better then the original Air Pods. The new H1 chip for Siri and audio makes it so there is very little or even no lag for voiceover users. Gestures and what is spoken are in pretty good sync.
So far I really like them a lot.
