I’ve got issues with mine since the update. Transparency mode doesn’t work unless I toggle it off and on a few times in the settings and they keep disconnecting from my phone randomly.
Great video! I have Air Pod pro 2nd generation, will I be able to use these as hearing aides once the software comes out or would I need the new AirPod 2 version?
Thanks you for your sharing. The Airpods Pro 2 hearing aid is the adjustable wireless speaker and it is not real hearing aid. without iphone or computer or any smart phone, the Airpods pro 2 can hear nothing -- please correct me. Thanks
@@peterrasmussen3100 It's not fall until Sept 22nd... so it's technically still summer. Then Apple would have the duration of the season to fulfill that promise. That SAID! My guess is it will arrive with iOS 18.1 (you'll need iOS support too) which rumored for October.
Guys I’m still on the 6A305 update and the case is 60.82.0 I tried to update it to the new one but it doesn’t update at all, I tried various times and nothing
It's a mix. The hearing health features are just for AIrPods Pro 2. The head gestures are also on the new AirPods 4 (they require the H2 chip). The lower latency I think comes to multiple models, though Apple hasn't specified if there are limitations there. May be all of them.
It’s hard to believe that my AirPod Pro 2nd generation (May’23) ,a product I trusted for its premium quality, has already stopped working after 16 months. I used to think Apple products were built to last, but this experience has really shaken my confidence. Are we paying for the name, or the quality? I’m not sure anymore.
They barely lasted a year? That’s not normal. I’ve had my AirPods Pro 1 for years now and they’re still perfect. You probably just got unlucky with a bad pair because 1 year is way too short of a lifespan for AirPods.
If I was having Noise Cancellation issues, do you think they might be fixed now with this update? I have the Pro 2nd gen & I actually just recently took them to Apple to see if something was actually wrong with them, but they passed Apple's tests with flying colors... even though Noise Cancellation doesn't work on any mode; they sound the same whether Off, Adaptive, Transparency, or Noise Cancellation 😕 I've cleaned them & reset them & Apple says nothings wrong, but the difference between my personal Airpods & the ones my job just recently gave me is ✨astronomical✨ any thoughts from anyone would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏽
@@PartyGod@PartyGod That's not the way to update AirPods; it's just the iOS device. To update AirPods, charge the AirPods near the iPhone, and it should update automatically in half an hour or so. Check the AirPods settings and scroll down to see if it has the newest version 7A294.
You can't update AirPods manually. Leave the AirPods and the case near an iPhone with internet access, and they will update automatically. The updated AirPods version should be 7A294.
Too many fanboys in the chat. For people who’ve had iPods since 03 these advanced options were not available until several years later. Combined with the poor technology in headphones if not having proper noise canceling features, the damage has long been done. Those people are now 45+ and are going to benefit from the new hearing features of the pro.
It’s great to see that they haven’t just released a new set and instead just improved upon the software, I hope with the next product release though they use the temperature sensors that were rumoured to be able to detect when your sick
@@ZairesWorldworse ANC due to no seal No hearing aid No volume control No MagSafe charging ( just wireless and watch ) Don’t come with a cable which if you go by Apple pricing ,it’s almost the difference of pro 2 and 4 and with deals , you probably can get cheaper pro 2 than listed price Unless you hate seal Then ok
@@ZairesWorld the music quality is just not on the same level as the pro’s but the ANC is also much better on the pro’s. Such as the battery on the AirPods. They will let you down after a year of use. The silicon seal makes also a tight fit while you go for a run.
@@AppleInsider personally I just can’t do those silicon tips on the Pro. My ear is just more accustomed to the regular EarPod earphones and the classic AirPods so yeah
I feel ya. I like both. I'll wear my OG AirPods all day long, that way I can hear notifications while I'm busy filming or working but I prefer AirPods Pro when I'm working in the woodshop or traveling.

can not find the hearing test on my ios 18.0.1. Should i wait till 18.1?

Same here
@@aniruddha3217 me too
@s0ggylettuce Did you manage to find a fix? I have the same issue
@@nikhilanup4109 I’m not sure if there has been another update since, but the issues seem to have gone away now. Hope yours have too.
This happened to me too! I fixed mine by unpairing.

Mine stopped charging wirelessly with the update. Thanks Apple.
Apart from the hearing aid functionality, will these features be available on AirPods 4 as well?
Many of them, yes!
I would and will be taking the hearing test.
Nice! Same! Then I can final tell my better half I'm not deaf!
does voice isolation only work for calls?
Thanks Apple ❤
Sound quality is horrible. Need a new mic.
Go to 5:30 miss the crap out of
I can’t find adaptive audio
you have to have airpods pro 2
My airpods aren't as loud since the recent update.
Thanks 🙏🏽 for the Video. A little animated, but good
Already have hearing loss. When is the hearing assistance coming?
In iOS 18.1 this fall!
@@AppleInsider it is fall. When do the rumors say?

You can do it right now if you have an audiogram. It has actually worked for years. I personally have used Mimi Hearing Test for this. Works great!
Head geature makes my airpods do weird sounds whenever siri read any messages 🤦♂️
Wow! I feel like having a new airpods pro all over again, good apple! ❤
Could you please tell me if the AirPods 2nd generation will receive a update with iOS 18
Yes, it will be the only one to receive the gesture and other updates.
The voice isolation feature is 2 yrs late from Apple but well received by me.
Guys I’m still on the 6A305 update and the case is 60.82.0 I tried to update it to the new one but it doesn’t update at all, I tried various times and nothing
Are we getting these feature for only to airpod pro 2???

I have the Gen 1 AirPod Pros. Suuupper bummed the head gestures can’t work on these because there’s no H2 chip 🙄.
@@MilanGP Yeah, I feel ya. That chip does so much!

had my airpods gen 1 since 2020, no issues
I would contact Apple. I had issues with my AirPods Pro 1 and they fixed them every time, even when my AppleCare had run out as a one time curtesy.

hopefully it should
Мy phone is heavier than stated in the instructions, it may also contain an explosive device?
Yes
i’m confused someone please answer, is the hearing test for all airpods pro models or only the new airpods pro 2 that was released a few days ago
Hearing test is on all AirPods Pro 2, which were released in 2022!
Do you know what firmware update all this comes with ? My AirPods Pro 2 have what Apple says is the latest version 6F8. Thanks - good succinct update
Assuming you’re on iOS 18.0,
AirPods firmware: 7A294
Case firmware: 70.88.0
You should be on this version before you get the features
How to update the AirPods for iOS 18 ?
Settings > General > Software update > Scroll down then click iOS 18 > Download and Install

still not worth losing my jailbreak over yet. will hold onto this baby for as long as i can!
Does AirPods 3 will get the head gesture update? Anyone knows
No
Wait a second. How did you change the AirPods noise isolation in post production?
What do you mean? On the example video of the audio with voice isolation?
My I Phone Pro Max now cannot use Airpods Pro 2 to to make calls through them
Apple should make firmware update more friendly.
It’s automatic but I understand what you mean lol
As teenagers apple killed our hearing with iPods. Now as older adults they are selling us hearing aids. Gotta love it.
Yeah let’s blame Apple for what you did
@@supportyou10 okay Mr cook.
Apple has the opción to adjust the decimal volume level from 70-100 & if u was using 100 and hearing music loud its ur fault
Too many fanboys in the chat. For people who’ve had iPods since 03 these advanced options were not available until several years later. Combined with the poor technology in headphones if not having proper noise canceling features, the damage has long been done.

You can’t blame Apple for listening to music too loud for too long. That’s your fault.
Yes I’d take a hearing test on AirPods. I want to know how my hearing is without a formal test.
It’s great to see that they haven’t just released a new set and instead just improved upon the software, I hope with the next product release though they use the temperature sensors that were rumoured to be able to detect when your sick
Do you need a sensor to know if you are sick? 🤔
Anything new for my old AirPod Pro 1st gen ?
Thank god there are Pro’s cause the 4’s are shayt
How are they bad?
how?
Probably cause the battery is a little worse. Still for better audio, better fit and an abundance of features its well worth it imo.
@@ZairesWorldworse ANC due to no seal
No hearing aid
No volume control
No MagSafe charging ( just wireless and watch )
Don’t come with a cable which if you go by Apple pricing ,it’s almost the difference of pro 2 and 4
and with deals , you probably can get cheaper pro 2 than listed price
Unless you hate seal
Then ok
@@ZairesWorld the music quality is just not on the same level as the pro’s but the ANC is also much better on the pro’s. Such as the battery on the AirPods. They will let you down after a year of use. The silicon seal makes also a tight fit while you go for a run.
Hey
Hey!
@@AppleInsider how are you doing
@@jamesantoine4318 absolutely great!
Please help
Another gimmick. No thank you.
First
The AirPod update process is rather embarrassing for Apple. No rhyme or reason for this dumb method
I’d never buy
Then don’t
What an odd response. Are you ok?
Also AirPods 4 is better than Pro
haha I have one comment saying airpods 4 are better than pro, and another saying airpods 4 are terrible. Y'all are hard to keep up with!
@@AppleInsider personally I just can’t do those silicon tips on the Pro. My ear is just more accustomed to the regular EarPod earphones and the classic AirPods so yeah
I feel ya. I like both. I'll wear my OG AirPods all day long, that way I can hear notifications while I'm busy filming or working but I prefer AirPods Pro when I'm working in the woodshop or traveling.
@@AppleInsider I am glad that AirPods 4 has active noise cancellation which is something I really needed for so long lol
RIght? I think these will be an instant-upgrade for many! Seems like a solid choice!
