Also shown are Apple's try-on kits. Customers who venture in to an Apple Store will get the chance to try out the new AirPods Pro, testing out the three sizes of silicone bud, and no doubt getting a chance to listen to the brand new Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency mode.
The AirPods Pro are available online and in-store now, you can find out everything you need to know about them here! Also, if you've ordered them online, there's a good chance your order may arrive today, even if you were initially told tomorrow.
