In Brief Apple didn’t unveil new hardware during Monday’s WWDC 2025, but we could still be getting updated AirPods soon.

This suggests that the AirPods Pro 3 could be coming soon, which would make sense, because the AirPods Pro 2 have been out for almost 3 years. Apple has also included phrasing like “AirPods Pro 2 or later” in some
