Editor Quote: "The real benefit to this gadget, though, is the sound quality. The AirPods Pro have three settings: normal, transparency mode, and noise-cancelling. The noise-cancelling mode is a game changer. I wore them on a plane, and it was like being in another world. I couldn't hear anything except my music, and that's the dream." — India Yaffe, former associate shopping editor
