The new set of wireless earbuds also feature something called “Transparency mode”, similar to the Ambient mode feature, that will highlight outside noise so that people can still hear things around them. The same feature can also be found in the Solo Pro, Beats’ new on-ear headphones.

Apple says that AirPods Pro will provide 4.5 hours of listening time when noise cancellation turned on, while the wireless charging case now offers over 24 hours of listening time or over 18 hours of talk time.
