2022-04-17 17:05:01 Whether you can bathe in AirPods Pro

AirPods Pro are water-resistant, unlike the first and second generation AirPods. However, you should definitely not wash or swim in the pool in them.

The fact is that the headphones have IPX4 splash protection, but it doesn't apply to water sports. Still don't believe it?

Read the footnote on Apple's website - it says so clearly. Things are much worse with the AirPods case, though: the charging cases are also not protected against sweat and water, so they need to be properly dried and under no circumstances should you charge wet headphones. Open / Comment
