AirPods Pro 3 review: The best get even better

9to5mac.com Chance Miller 2025-09-24 21:00:06

AirPods Pro are the quintessential Apple product, combining excellent design and functionality with superb ecosystem integration. Last week, Apple introduced AirPods Pro 3, the second major revision since the product line debuted in 2019. I’ve been using AirPods Pro 3 since that announcement, and they feel like a turning point. Here’s why. Comfort and fit Apple says AirPods Pro 3 feature a new in-ear design that “fits more people than ever.” The company says it utilized “over 10,000 ear scans

AirPods Pro 3 review: A significant update to Apple’s best earbuds

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-24 21:00:28

If you’re not already wearing a pair of AirPods all day, Apple’s latest suite of features may convince you to do so. The company’s latest model, the AirPods Pro 3 ($249), is Apple’s most comprehensive update to its best set of earbuds. Flashy new features like Live Translation and heart-rate sensing will garner the bulk of the attention, but upgrades to active noise cancellation (ANC) and a significant boost in sound quality shouldn’t be overlooked. And with a notable improvement in battery life

I tried Apple's 2 big AI features announced at the iPhone 17 event - and both are game changers

Jason Hiner/ZDNET While we didn't hear much about Siri or Apple Intelligence during the 2025 Apple Event that launched new iPhones, AirPods, and Apple Watches, there were two huge AI features announced that have largely slipped under the radar. That's mostly because they were presented as great new features and didn't use overhyped AI marketing language. Nevertheless, I got to demo both features at Apple Park on Tuesday and my first impression was that both of them are nearly fully baked and r

"Live Translation with AirPods is not available if you are in the EU and your Apple Account Country or Region is also in the EU," the company said on its iOS feature availability page.

The AirPods Pro 3 are a big upgrade over the AirPods Pro 2.

It consists of one capacitor (1C) and one silicon (Si)-based transistor (1T). While the capacitor’s role is to store a charge, the transistor is used to access the capacitor, either to read how much charge is stored or to store a new charge.

As we listen to a piece of music, our ears perform a calculation. The high-pitched flutter of the flute, the middle tones of the violin, and the low hum of the double bass fill the air with pressure waves of many different frequencies. When the combined sound wave descends through the ear canal and into the spiral-shaped cochlea, hairs of different lengths resonate to the different pitches, separating the messy signal into buckets of elemental sounds.
