What's new in Airpods Pro 2

At WWDC 2025, Apple introduced several new features for AirPods Pro 2, particularly focusing on enhancing audio recording capabilities. Here are some of the highlights:

1. High-Quality Recording: A new high-quality, high sample rate Bluetooth option is available for apps that feature audio capture. This is designed specifically for content creators, providing a balance between voice and background sounds, similar to a lavalier microphone. This feature is supported in both AV audio session and AVCapture session (Enhance your app’s audio recording capabilities).

2. Studio Quality Vocals: Creators can now record studio-quality vocals directly with AirPods, thanks to improved tonal balance and timbre, which authentically represent the texture of your voice (Keynote).

3. Remote Camera Control: AirPods equipped with the H2 chip can be used for remote camera control, allowing users to capture moments without interacting with their phones. This feature is integrated into the AVCapture event interaction (Enhancing your camera experience with capture controls).

These updates make AirPods Pro 2 a versatile tool for content creators, enhancing both audio and camera functionalities.
