IPX4 for water resistance.[1]

They come with three sizes of silicone tips. In iOS there is a

software test to "[measure] the sound level in the ear and
comparing it to what is coming from the speaker driver" to
ensure a correct fit, as well as a feature called "Adaptive
EQ" which automatically adjusts the frequency contour,
claimed to better match the wearer's ear shape.[4]

The charging case advertises the same 24 hours of total AirPods Pro in charging case
listening time as the standard AirPods case. It features Qi
standard wireless charging compatibility.[7]

Like AirPods, AirPods Pro have received criticism for their battery life.[8]

Support for AirPods Pro was added in iOS 13.2, watchOS 6.1, tvOS 13.2, and macOS Catalina
10.15.1.[7][6] They are compatible with any device that supports Bluetooth, including Windows
and Android devices, although certain features such as automatic switching between devices are
only available on Apple devices using its iCloud service.
