Four years ago, Apple introduced AirPods Pro 2. Recently, Bloomberg reported that Apple will announce AirPods Pro 3 this autumn, so it will almost certainly happen on 9 September at the iPhone 17 presentation. Pre-orders for AirPods Pro 3 are likely to start on 12 September (Friday), and sales will begin on 19 September.
What is expected in AirPods Pro 3
- The new product is likely to receive the H3 chip, a more powerful processor that will be responsible for sound quality and ANC (active noise cancellation).
- Heart-rate monitoring - according to Bloomberg (Mark Gurman), Apple is developing a technology that already works in Powerbeats Pro 2.
- Live Translation - real-time translation of live conversations.
- The new AirPods Pro 3 will have an updated case, it will become thinner and get a button on the front (LED and sensor), similar to AirPods 4.
- There are rumours that a sensor for measuring body temperature is being tested, but there is no reliable confirmation.
