For iPhone owners, the AirPods pro are a fantastic set of wireless earphones. IndyBest gave them a score of 10/10 and our reviewer said: “If you’re a member of the iOS family, the AirPods pro are the best in-ear earphones you can get on the market, and will continue to be until Apple decides to release a successor.”
The earphones are capable of around five hours of use on their own, then can be popped into the charge case for up to an extra 19 hours of use time. That case itself is then charged either with the included USB-to-Lightning cable, or when placed onto a wireless charger.
Apple includes three sets of rubber earbud tips – small, medium and large – to make sure you get the right fit, and there are touch-sensitive controls on the stems of each AirPod for handling music playback, calls and the Siri voice assistant. If you’re a fully-fledged subscriber to the Apple ecosystem then you’ll be pleased to see how the AirPods Pro auromatically switch their Bluetooth connection between your iPhone, Mac and iPad, depending on what device you are using.
Travelling on a noisy bus, train or plane won’t be the same again once you have the AirPods pro in your ears.
