Yes, the noise cancellation on AirPods Pro 3 is noticeably better than on AirPods Pro 2.
Here’s why:
- Stronger Active Noise Cancellation: The new processing system in Pro 3 cancels a wider range of background sounds, especially low rumbles like airplane engines or road noise.
- Improved Ear-Tip Seal: With redesigned tips and more size options, Pro 3 create a tighter acoustic seal, reducing sound leakage and making ANC more effective.
- Upgraded Microphones: The microphones are more accurate at detecting external sounds, so the earbuds can cancel them out faster and with greater precision.
- Refined Transparency Mode: Switching between ANC and Transparency feels smoother, and when you want outside sounds to pass through, voices and environmental noise are clearer and more natural.
In everyday life, this means you’ll notice quieter commutes, calmer flights, and fewer distractions compared to Pro 2.
