New features of the Apple AirPods Pro

Apple revealed that the AirPods Pro comes with a ''Active Noise Cancellation'' which boasts of a unique feature that is ''Adaptive EQ and Transparency mode.'' The active noise cancellation mode removes all the background noise completely and uses two microphones combined with advanced software that continuously adapts to each individual ear and headphone fit.

The first microphone faces outward and detects external sound and analyses the environmental noise. AirPods Pro creates an equivalent anti-noise function that cancels out background noise before it can even reach the listener's ear. A second inward-facing microphone listens toward the ear and filters and cancels out any remaining noise, Apple said.

They also come in three different sizes that can fit the users ear. Apple revealed that their latest gadget is ear friendly and releases all the discomfort and pressure from the ears while using the AirPods when compared to the other earphones which are out in the market.
