This helps your own voice sound more natural, and
allows you to hear traffic on a busy street, for example.
It’s an important safety feature.
How do I control AirPods Pro?
There’s a new ‘force sensor’ on the stem that is used
to engage noise cancelling or transparency mode, or
play/pause and skip tracks. It’s like a virtual button
that doesn’t actually move. Press once to play/pause
tracks or answer phone calls. Press twice to skip
forward. Press three times to skip back. Press-and-hold
to toggle between noise cancelling and transparency
mode, or to invoke Siri (you can switch its function in
the Bluetooth settings on your iPhone).
Can I use “Hey Siri” hands-free?
The AirPods Pro use the same H1 chip found in the
second-generation AirPods, PowerBeats Pro, and Beats
Solo Pro. You can invoke Siri by saying “Hey Siri”.
How much do they cost?
The AirPods Pro cost £249. There’s only the one model
- no colours or options. Regular AirPods can be bought
with a regular Charging Case for £159 or with a Wireless
Charging Case for £199. The AirPods Pro only come
with a Wireless Charging Case – so in effect they cost
£50 more than the similarly-equipped AirPods. As with
regular AirPods, you can add a free engraved message.
Can I get AppleCare+?
Yes. Just as with regular AirPods, AppleCare+ costs £29
on the AirPods Pro. If you need to get your AirPods Pros
