Apple reveals new AirPods Pro 2 with ‘longest battery life ever’

APPLE has revealed its new pair of AirPods that boasts what the tech giant claims is the 'longest battery life ever'.

The second-generation Pro in-ear buds were unveiled at Apple's 'Far Out' event on Wednesday.

They promise to deliver an "exceptional" audio experience, according to Apple CEO Tim Cook.

One of the new features includes enhanced noise cancellation, which can cancel up twice as much noise as the original AirPods Pro.

Another development includes 'spatial audio', which allows users to feel like they are fully immersed in the audio.

As far as battery life goes, the new AirPods Pro features six hours of listening time from a single charge — or a 33 percent increase.

With the charging case, the AirPods feature up to 30 hours of listening time (an increase of six hours).

Apple's new AirPods will also feature more tips to allow for more comfortable fittings – including an extra small tip.

As far as convenience goes, users can use the AirPods themselves to play or pause media and even adjust the volume by swiping up and down.

The AirPods

Apple first launched the AirPods back in 2016 – with fans comparing the first design to an electric toothbrush.

But the AirPods are now a cultural icon covered by teens and adults alike.

Apple has since launched several generations of AirPods, including a Pro model.

And while they all offer different features, they still all feature a stem on each bud.
