Good morning,
People flexing with their AirPods is about to get a whole lot worse.
Apple announced the release of new-and-improved, noise-canceling AirPods Pro on Monday. The premium earbuds, though only available in the color white, will hit the market on Oct. 30 for $249 a pop.
Other than their noise-canceling abilities, the earbuds will feature a transparency mode to allow users to listen to their surroundings while wearing them. The earbuds will also include “Adaptive EQ,” which “automatically tunes music to the shape of your ear.”
The AirPods Pro will also be sweat and waterproof, allowing people to not only flex at the gym but also in the pool come summertime again.
