AirPods Pro are water-resistant, but they are not waterproof. This means that they can withstand a certain amount of water exposure, but they can be damaged if they are submerged in water for an extended period of time or if they are exposed to high-pressure water.
AirPods Pro have a water damage indicator located inside the charging case. This indicator is a small hole with a white dot inside. If the white dot turns red, it means that the AirPods Pro have been exposed to water and may be damaged.
