First impressions about audio quality are slim, but Ahmedmia says the AirPods Pro appear to have more of an emphasis on bass. The reviewers were all impressed with the active noise cancellation, with Brownlee saying noise cancellation on the AirPods Pro is roughly on par with the new Beats Solo Pro.
