It’s how well the new AirPods Pro keeps that outside world at arm’s length that impressed me. The new adaptive Transparency mode, for example, can adjust the level of active noise cancellation according to the sounds in the environment around you. Meanwhile, switching to full ANC trimmed the 70-80 dB of sound to the low 50 dB region, according to the companion app on the Apple Watch Ultra I was wearing at the time.
No, these aren’t the earbuds you should be wearing for complete isolation, or in situations where there’s legitimate, long-term danger to your hearing. But as a way to choose how much of the outside world makes it through, whether that be conversations or a safety level of traffic hubbub for when you’re crossing the road, it’s nice to have a broader array of options.
The same goes for the new gesture support. Having to rely on Siri to adjust volume was one of my lingering annoyances with the first-generation AirPods Pro: it’s just plain annoying to have to ask the assistant to change how loud your music is. Apple has responded by adding a capacitive swipe gesture to the stems of the new AirPods Pro, so you can stroke the volume up or down.
