Music The new AirPods Pro 2, or second generation, don't look any different from the original ones. That's a bit unfortunate because the sound and functionality of these new active-noise-canceling (ANC) wireless earbuds is worthy of a visible distinction.

Sound quality is better, noise canceling is improved and the earbuds are more enjoyable to use overall compared with the first generation model. My favorite feature has been the completely new addition of volume controls—slide up on the stem to raise the audio level and down to lower it. Even if you don't care about that, there are other new features scattered across the product to improve most aspects.
