Why we rate it
First things first, they're a huge upgrade on the previous model — with added features like adaptive audio, active noise-cancellation and transparency listening modes, and conversation awareness.
The adaptive audio, in particular, is super impressive, with the ability to tailor the level of noise control to your environment and depending on where you are.
As for the conversation awareness, it helps lower media volume and enhance the voices in front of you while you’re interacting with others. And transparency mode that lets you hear what's going on around you. The multiple listening modes makes it unbelievably easy to perfectly tailor your audio experience. Something that can't be said for all types of earphones and headphones!

The earphone's volume can be adjusted with just the swipe of your finger on the stem, together with playback functions.
Then there's the actual shape of the earphones, designed to perfectly fit in the ear, you can adjust the fit of them by using customisable silicone ear tips for optimum comfort (available in sizes XS, S, M and L). They're also dust, sweat, and water resistant.
When it comes to battery life, these Airpods come with a mammoth up to six hours on a single charge, and a boosted 30 hours on a full charge with the charging case. Realistically, you'll never be short on battery when you can charge on-the-go.
For price comparison, Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Generation) with MagSafe Case (USB‑C) usually cost £229 directly from Apple and other major retailers, making this deal from Amazon — now just £179 — a pretty sizeable one.
