​Apple has updated its baseline audio lineup with the introduction of the AirPods 5.

​The standout feature of this generation is a fully dynamic audio environment. The AirPods 5 can now automatically adjust from Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to transparency mode in real-time, responding instantly to shifts in background noise. This removes the need for manual toggling when moving between quiet environments and busy streets.

​Pricing and Availability

​The standard AirPods 5 model launches at $129, while the version equipped with a wireless charging case is priced at $149.
