Will they let me try the Apple AirPods Pro 2 in the store?

I'd like to experience the noise cancelling technology... I still have working 1st gen Apple AirPods... they are generally good but not on an airplane or in a loud room. I've experienced the Bose noise cancelling technology and it is amazing but I'm an Apple user and I understand sticking with the Apple product allows enhanced capabilities.

Has AirPods Pro 2 noise cancelling got weaker? Am referring to AirPods Pro 2 with firmware 7B21, March 2025 It’s no doubt very subjective, but I could swear noise cancellation has become noticeably worse lately, and transparency has become less transparent. The difference between noise cancelling and transparency used to be very obvious. Lately I’ve found myself having to check my phone to see which mode is activated. Took them to an Apple Store today to have them checked, but they said diagnostics indicated everything was working as expected. Could be me, of course, but my hearing is okay. Leaving the Apple Store, I tried noise cancelling again and could hear the faint mall music and everyone chatting around me. Has the quality of noise cancellation changed due to a firmware update?

Why did noise cancellation on AirPods Pro (2nd generation) get significantly worse after iOS 17 update (firmware update to 6A301)? After I updated my iPhone 13 to iOS 17 my AirPods pro downloaded a new firmware. I noticed that I can hear I lot more noise than I used to with noise cancellation mode. For example, before the update I didn't hear any music played at the gym from local speakers, now I can hear the song across the whole gym, or while travelling by tram I didn't hear the tram at all, but now I can hear it a lot and I can even hear people talking. The difference between Turn Off and Noise cancellation is close to zero. I keep my AirPods clean so dust is not a problem and they are also just 3 weeks old.
