AirPods Pro 3

The AirPods Pro 3 are Apple’s latest premium wireless earbuds, released in 2025 as the successor to AirPods Pro 2. They focus on better noise cancellation, improved fit, health features, and deeper integration with the Apple ecosystem. 

Key features

• Stronger Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) — Apple says ANC is up to 2× better than AirPods Pro 2 and up to 4× better than the original AirPods Pro.  
• Heart-rate monitoring during workouts, similar to features found in some fitness earbuds.  
• Live Translation when paired with an iPhone, allowing conversations to be translated through the earbuds.  
• Improved sound quality and a redesigned acoustic system.  
• Better fit and stability, with more ear-tip options and improved comfort during exercise.  
• Hearing health features, including hearing tests, hearing-aid functionality in supported regions, and loud-sound reduction.  
• IP57 water and dust resistance for better durability. 

Battery life

Reports indicate up to 8 hours of listening with ANC enabled, with additional charges from the case. Real-world battery life varies depending on features such as ANC and spatial audio.
