People complain the Pro moniker is losing meaning on a MBP - does it mean anything here?

  Sealed silicone tips and active noise cancellation would seem to differentiate them enough from the regular AirPods to make them “pro”. But the concept of “pro” meaning “for professional content producers” is long over.

  It means the same thing it does for all Apple products: ‘premium’. Here you get noise cancelling.

  The pro line is just the high-end line-up from Apple. The 'regular' (non-pro) line is for consumers with average spending, and the pro line is for those who are willing to spend more for a more polished experience. Maybe except for the upcoming Mac pro, the pro line products don't offer particular features for professional use over the regular line. It's not like you can't do professional work on a non-pro Apple product. It's just a really well chosen marketing name, which is now being diluted due because every* Apple product now has a pro version. * except the Watch I believe?
