The AirPods Pro 2 are, to our ears, Apple's best wireless earbuds. The flagship buds are the best in-ear recipe that the Californian brand has cooked up thus far, melding a clear, powerful and engaging sound with excellent usability and superb ANC. Five-star ratings are always hard won, but the AirPods Pro 2 earned their full haul in style.
Great earbuds can always become greater, though, and Apple thinks it knows how to squeeze those extra ounces of performance out of its flagship buds. According to a patent filed at the US Patent and Trademark Office earlier this month, Apple is looking to make significant changes to its future Pro models, including alterations to the buds' touch-controls and a potential improvement to the AirPods' active noise cancelling capabilities.
