The AirPods Pro 2nd Gen were released on September 23, 2022, originally.

Multipoint pairing means they can be connected to two devices at once, for instant and seamless switching.

Although it’s effective, it can also be a little off-putting as we couldnt hear traffic around us.

Theres also a nice Battery Protection Mode option within the Smart Control app.

Sennheiser MOMENTUM True…

There’s active noise cancellation which we found to be… OK.

None of that with the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4.

As you’d probably expect, Apple’s spatial wizardry here can also ‘upscale’ stereo to spatial audio.

It probably goes without saying that Sennheiser offers a much more rig-agnostic set of earbuds.

This works with gloves on, which is useful.
