[Apple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pixel-buds-pro) recently officially announced the '[AirPods Pro](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airpods-pro-with-usbc)' which will be available to consumers beginning on October 30th, for a $249 price point. Apple's new AirPods Pro feature a reworked design with [active noise cancellation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-bose-quietcomfort-earbuds) that provides a more focused sound experience. Additionally, the new design is lighter than Apple's previous versions of the AirPods.

The new AirPods Pro also has a new vent system that is able to equalize pressure, which results in a more comfortable listening experience. The new wireless earbuds also have sweat and waterproof design, enabling them to be used during strenuous or outdoor activities.

Additionally, the new pair has a new Transparency Mode, which enables the owner to listen to music while also being able to hear their external environment.
