The state of AirPods Pro 2 in 2026

By CrystalScout894 · DISCUSSION · About AirPods Pro 2

With all the competition in this space, where does AirPods Pro 2 stand heading into 2026? I think it still has strong fundamentals but the lack of innovation recently is concerning. The ecosystem is mature which is both a strength and a weakness. What do you all think about its future?

NeonFlux225: Had the same problem. Try resetting to factory defaults and setting up from scratch. Fixed it for me. Pain to reconfigure everything but it works.

EpicScout226: Interesting perspective. My experience has been the opposite actually. AirPods Pro 2 has been rock solid for me since day one. Maybe it depends on the specific use case?
