Apple already provided the media with the new AirPods Pro at the Steve Jobs Theater earlier this month, so the video doesn’t reveal anything new, but it still provides a glimpse into the unboxing experience. In the box are AirPods Pro, a new charging case with a built-in speaker for Find My support and a lanyard loop, silicone ear tips in sizes ranging from XS to L, a Lightning to USB-C cable, and documentation. The new XS ear tips are already sold separately for $7.99 on Apple’s online store. Apple says these ear tips are only compatible with the second-generation AirPods Pro, but they appear to work with the original AirPods Pro as well. Second-generation AirPods Pro also feature improved sound quality, longer battery life, up to 2x the noise cancellation of the original AirPods Pro, the ability to swipe up and down on the stem to adjust volume, and more. The new AirPods Pro are available to order now and remain priced at $249 in the United States. (Thanks, @Steve_J_84!)
