With the Vision Pro arriving in early 2024, Apple says the newest AirPods Pro with USB-C case “offer the perfect experience, featuring Lossless Audio with ultra-low latency enabled by the H2 chip in both devices.” And today you can get a pair cheaper than ever: Amazon is selling the 2nd-gen AirPods Pro with USB-C for $190, a savings of $59, and the best price we’ve ever seen.
Along with lossless audio support for Vision Pro, the new 2nd-gen AirPods Pro also have a USB-C charging case and IP54 dust resistance dust resistance. The design hasn’t changed since the 1st-gen model but the newer model has longer battery life (6 hours vs 4.5 hours), improved audio quality, Adaptive Transparency mode, and improved 2X noise cancellation.
In our 4.5-star review, we praised the AirPods Pro as “the best choice for those who use Apple products,” and at this price, they’re the best choice for Vision Pro too.
