New Apple AirPods Pro Released with Improved Features and Price Tag

Apple has released its new AirPods Pro wireless earbuds, which come with several improvements over their predecessors. The most noticeable feature is that they are priced at $249, which is more than the original AirPods. However, it's worth noting that the new AirPods still offer similar features to their older counterparts, including wireless charging via Lightning or Qi-compatible cases. Additionally, the earbuds still have noise-cancelling technology built into them.

The new AirPods Pro also come with an improved feature called "deep fusion," which allows for more detailed and crisp photos taken in medium-light situations. This is a significant improvement over the standard camera features found on older iPhones. To take advantage of deep fusion, users will need to have iOS 13.2 installed on their device, as well as update the Photos app settings to ensure that the "Photos captured outside the frame" option is turned off.

In other Apple news, iOS 13.2 has been released, and it includes several minor updates and features. One of the most significant changes is the addition of deep fusion, which will allow for more detailed and crisp photos taken in medium-light situations. Users with iPhone 11 or iPhone 11 Pro devices will be able to take advantage of this feature.

Apple TV+ also launches this week, with a free year trial available to new subscribers. The streaming service offers a range of content, including several original shows and movies, and will cost $4.99 per month in the US. Reviewers have already begun sharing their thoughts on some of the launch titles, which include "The Morning Show" and "Dickinson."

Rumors and leaks continue to circulate around Apple's upcoming products, including a new Bluetooth tracking tag known as an "Air Tag." According to Mac Rumors, the Air Tag will be referred to as such in iOS 13.2 code. The device is expected to allow users to attach tags to various items and then track their location using the Find My app on their iPhone or Mac.

Additionally, Apple has been rumored to be working on a new MacBook Pro with thinner bezels and an "Escape" key, which would replace the current software-based escape key found on the touch bar. This change is expected to make it easier for users to quickly exit apps and applications. The design of the MacBook Pro is also expected to be improved, with Apple potentially incorporating more premium materials and designs.

Finally, Apple's regulatory testing process has been made public, revealing that the company is working on a new Mac Pro model. While no official details have been released, fans of the high-end desktop computer can expect it to arrive soon. The release date is expected to be in 2022, although Apple has not yet confirmed this.

In response to comments left by listeners during last week's episode, Apple is being encouraged to release a cheaper iPhone model with design similarities to the iPhone X and XI models. Listeners also suggested that future iPhones should include longer battery life, faster charging speeds, and wireless charging capabilities. Some listeners even requested that Apple bring back the headphone jack on its future smartphones. While these suggestions are purely speculative, they do highlight some of the features and design changes that users would like to see in future Apple products.

In conclusion, this week has seen several major announcements from Apple, including the release of new AirPods Pro wireless earbuds, iOS 13.2, and Apple TV+. The company is also working on a range of other products, including Bluetooth tracking tags, a new MacBook Pro model, and an iPhone successor rumored to be called the "iPhone SE."

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enairports pro our official iOS 13.2 is here apple TV plus is launching this Friday and we have a potential name for Apple's rumored Bluetooth tracking tags it's been a big week for everything Apple so let's dive straight into what's new rather than hold a big October event Apple decided to fly under the radar with just a press release to announce the airport's Pro they have pretty much everything we were expecting from the rumors so noise cancellation a new in air design with interchangeable tips and water resistance but there are a few features that I think are really going to set them apart from other Bluetooth earbuds for example they can work out if you have the right size tip in your ear once you've put the air pods in the Mike's an algorithm work together to measure if the sound level matches what's coming from this speaker driver with many other in earbuds it's a bit of a Goldilocks game of swapping tips to find the right one for the best fit so this will make that process a little easier however there are only three tip sizes included in the box so let's hope that one of them works for your ear size the original air pods weren't exactly renowned for their sound quality but the airport's pro will adapt the sound to the shape of your ear the equalizer automatically Tunes the lows and the mids to the best frequencies for you kind of neat and it means that you won't have to necessarily understand how to tune your own audio with an equalizer to get it sounding how you want and the most underrated feature by far well they look a lot smaller and less obtrusive than the original air pods the stem is shorter and they don't stick out as much when you're looking at someone front on but here's the catch they are two hundred and forty nine dollars which is more than the original air ports which are incidentally still available by the way and they still charged via lightning or wireless charging which is built into the case it's early days and I've only just got my hands on them so stay tuned for lots of comparisons with other wireless buds including the cheaper Amazon echo buds and the other noise cancelling earphones to beat the sony wf1 and xm3 and don't forget to watch the full airports pro debriefed by david Cano which i've linked to in the description below iOS 13.2 also dropped this week and while we don't normally pay that much attention to minor OS updates this is one you'll definitely want to know about and not just because you'll need it if you want to use the new airports pro if you have an iphone 11 or 11 pro you'll now get deep fusion apple's special feature to take very detailed photos of sweaters just kidding it's actually way more interesting than that but there are a lot of sweaters in all the sample photos provided by Apple so I think someone there is really getting into the pumpkin spice season in the northern hemisphere anyway all you really need to know is that your photos should now have more detail and less noise in situations where smart HDR or night mode aren't active so that's pretty much medium light here's some examples of photos shot with deep fusion on an iPhone 11 side by side with the same shot on an iPhone 10 are to give you an idea of what difference deep fusion can make in terms of detail and sharpness and stay tuned for that camera comparison coming soon to make sure deep fusion is actually active once you have iOS 13 point to go to settings camera and make sure the photos captured outside the frame option is turned off and don't forget you'll only be able to see the results when using the wide or telephoto lens not the ultra wide another totally unrelated Apple service launching this week is Apple TV plus which rolls out Friday November 1st it costs $4.00 99 in the US per month and you'll also get a free year trial if you get a new iPhone Mac etc and the first reviews are out for some of the launch titles on the streaming service including the morning show and Dickinson although they're probably not what Apple was hoping for let's see what viewers think come Friday sorry couldn't help it of course this wouldn't be the apple core without some rumors a new snippet found in iOS 13.2 by mac rumors points to a new name for those Bluetooth tracking tags that Apple is supposedly working on they're referred to as air tags and the idea is that you could attach one of these tags to pretty much anything then find the location of that item through the find my app on the iPhone 95 Mac also found some extra details in iOS code referring to a battery swap mode so presumably you'll be able to swap the batteries in and out but something else that we're missing from the Apple product announcements this week well that's this 16 inch MacBook Pro with those slimmer bezels and induces a switch keyboard as opposed to the current much-maligned butterfly keyboard on the current models Apple may still surprise us with a press release drop before the holidays though and an image found by a 9 to 5 Mac in the latest release version of Mac OS shows us an image of what we expect the touch bar and keyboard to look like now this one has a separate touch ID key rather than integrated into the bar and this also might mean we get a physical Escape key back rather than the software key that's currently on the touch bar of the MacBook Pro let's hope so anyway and let's not forget our good old friend the Mac Pro which was slated for a full release some good news this week in the form of an FCC approvals spotted by a 9 to 5 Mac the regulatory testing information has publicly been released so basically that just means we should expect it real soon Thanks to everyone who left comments on the show two weeks ago when we
