The AirPods Pro deliver the best "truly wireless" experience for iPhone users, combining an isolating in-ear design with powerful active noise cancellation, a low-distortion driver and amplifier, and the Apple H2 chip. They also offer convenient features like Adaptive Transparency, letting you hear your surroundings without removing the earbuds, and Conversation Boost, which enhances voices during talks. This second-generation model swaps the Lightning port for the more universal USB-C connector, so you won’t need multiple cables, and includes a MagSafe charging case as standard.

Why choose AirPods Pro over AirPods 4 with ANC?

The AirPods Pro are the more capable choice—reflected in their usual $70 premium over the AirPods 4 with ANC. While both support active noise cancellation, the AirPods Pro sound richer and cancel more outside noise thanks to their design. The AirPods 4 with ANC use an open-ear fit with fixed ear tips. They rest outside the ear canal, which is comfortable but allows sound to leak in and out.

By contrast, the AirPods Pro sit inside the ear canal, effectively sealing it to block external noise passively. The included adjustable ear tips help achieve a snug, personalized fit—essential for getting the best audio and noise cancellation. At this price, the main reason to opt for the AirPods 4 with ANC is if you generally dislike the feel of in-ear earbuds.
