Apple AirPods Pro 2 (USB-C)

For anyone inside the Apple ecosystem these are difficult to argue with: instant pairing, seamless switching between iPhone, iPad and Mac, and Adaptive Audio that blends cancellation and transparency automatically. Transparency mode is the best on any earbud, natural enough to hold a conversation without removing them. Cancellation is very good though not quite Bose-level. Battery is about six hours. On Android they lose most of the clever features and become ordinary earbuds — buy accordingly.
