Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Generation)
The 2nd Generation of the Apple AirPods Pro is an excellent choice for those looking for great noise cancelation and immersive sound. They come with what's known as an H-2 chip, which provides spatial audio for the listener making for an incredible listening experience.
Being able to block out much of life's distractions is why I love the Active Noise Cancelation feature that allows you to make outside noise almost disappear. With a quick long press on the volume of your iPhone you can choose Transparency Mode if you feel more comfortable hearing the surrounding noise in addition to what you're listening to. AirPods Pro also comes with Touch Control, which allows you to control the volume of what you're listening to directly from your AirPod stem.
I will soon not forget touring the audio labs within Apple's headquarters. My jaw about hit the ground at how huge the single focus of audio receives at Apple. It's astonishing how deeply the research and development team goes to innovate sound in their products. I remember thinking that Apple's audio R&D labs were as vast as some entire companies' footprint in size.
That's likely where one of AirPods Pro's new best features is developed. The charging case in generation 2 now comes with a built-in speaker that makes finding a misplaced case and earbud easier to locate.

Once you do need to recharge them, just 3 minutes of charging will get you another hour of playtime. Aside from Galaxy Buds Pro's top-notch charging qualities, they also come with 1 internal and 2 external microphones. That audio abundance makes it so you never have to worry about your voice being drowned out by the outside if you're on an important call.

Perhaps the most unique feature of these wireless earbuds by TAGRY is the charging case. The case comes with an LED power display and a whopping 60 hours of playback that shows the power level of the charging case and the earbuds.
The earbuds also have a nano-coating that can prevent water and sweat from penetrating, so it's great for athletes who want to use them while they work out.
