As revealed earlier, the AirPods Pro is officially priced at RM1,099. Although Apple has yet to reveal its Malaysian availability, the listing has indicated that stocks are expected to arrive on the 9th December 2019.
Compared to the standard AirPods, the Pro version uses an in-ear design that uses silicon tips. The stems are shorter with a pressure-sensitive button. You can pinch it to control your music playback, answering phone calls or to activate transparency mode, which allows you to hear your surroundings.

On a full charge, it is rate to last 4.5 hours of music playback with ANC enabled and you can get 24 hours of total playback with the charging case. If you turn off ANC and transparency mode, it can last slightly longer at up to 5 hours.
The case can support Qi wireless charging and you can also charge it via lightning cable. A quick 5-minute charge can replenish the battery with 1 hour of music playback.
