The AirPods Pro are also claimed to be sweat- and water-resistant.

To enable active noise cancellation, the AirPods Pro use two microphones in combination with software to remove background noise.

Additionally, there is a low-distortion speaker driver that is said to provide bass down to 20Hz alongside delivering detailed mid- and high-frequency audio.

In addition to active noise cancellation, Apple has provided the Transparency mode on the AirPods Pro that allows users to simultaneously listen to music while hearing ambient noises around them. A force sensor is available on the stem of the AirPods earbuds to enable easy switching between active noise cancellation and Transparency mode. Moreover, users can press on the volume slider in the Control Centre on iPhone and iPad or hit the AirPlay icon on their Apple Watch while listening to music to adjust settings virtually.

For detecting whether the ear tip size fits well, the AirPods Pro come with a feature called Ear Tip Fit Test. This new offering is touted to use software algorithms and built-in microphones of each AirPods earbud. Further, the feature also provides suggestions to adjust the tips for a better seal.

The AirPods Pro come with an Apple H1 chip that is claimed to include 10 audio cores and "powers everything from sound to Siri." You need an Apple device running at least iOS 13.2, iPadOS 13.2, watchOS 6.1, tvOS 13.2, or macOS Catalina 10.15.1 to experience the features of the AirPods Pro. Moreover, similar to the earlier models, the new AirPods version is "impractical" to repair due to its "glued-together design" that has been found in a recent teardown by iFixit.
