After having painfully waited three years for a second edition, the hardcore Apple fans are likely “stuck” with the current generation of AirPods Pro in the foreseeable future. After all, there’s no point fiddling with perfection, and while Cupertino’s latest noise-canceling headphones may not be perfect, they’re damn close.
One of the very few “bad” things about the AirPods Pro 2 is most likely the retail price of $249.99, which certainly could have been worse…and is currently down to a much more palatable $199.99 at Verizon. (from all retailers).
