Talking about the third generation of AirPods Pro will be relevant throughout the next year. This is entirely justified: the gadget is well integrated with artificial intelligence, and specific features for health and sports have immediately appeared. We will discuss Apple’s new wireless headphones: an overview of the <\/strong>AirPods Pro 3<\/strong><\/a> specifications, pros, and cons \u2014 all in this article.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Earbud Fit<\/h2>\n

The new shape of the AirPods Pro 3 ensures comfort and a secure fit. To create an improved form factor, developers analyzed more than 10,000 ear scans. If you have the previous generation of earbuds and are comparing AirPods Pro 3 vs AirPods Pro 2, you will notice the difference in design right away. The new model has a slightly smaller base, and the ear tips have been repositioned.<\/p>\n

To make it easier for you to find ear tips that fit the anatomy of your ear, the set comes with five pairs of different sizes \u2014 XXS has also been added. During the first connection, you can take a new test. Your smartphone will analyze how well the tips fit your ears and, if necessary, recommend a different size.<\/p>\n

Another design change is that the headphones now have IP57 dust, sweat, and moisture protection. In the second generation and AirPods 4, this rating is IP54. Now, intense workouts and unpredictable weather are no match for this accessory.<\/p>\n

Noise Cancellation System<\/h2>\n

AirPods Pro 3 noise cancellation works on the principle of multichannel acoustic architecture. It controls airflow and provides a sense of spatial sound. What’s changed:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • a deeper sense of immersion is created in any environment, from noisy subways to caf\u00e9s;<\/li>\n
  • new digital processing algorithms and foam ear tips work together to better cancel out noise;<\/li>\n
  • the effect is twice as good as in AirPods Pro 3 and four times better than in AirPods Pro.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    A nice bonus is that the battery life of AirPods Pro 3 when using active noise cancellation (ANC) has increased to 8 hours (previously 6 hours), and with periodic recharging in the case, it is 24 hours. By the way, without ANC, the headphones can last up to 10 hours straight. Overall, the sound quality of AirPods Pro 3 has also improved. This is achieved with the new generation of Adaptive EQ intelligent equalizer.<\/p>\n

    Sports and Artificial Intelligence<\/h2>\n

    The improvements in AirPods Pro 3 also affect interaction capabilities during training. There is a built-in heart rate sensor (the smallest among Apple’s developments). Its task is to monitor the heart’s performance, and it does so using infrared light.<\/p>\n

    Other innovations are the following:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. When paired with a phone (thanks to an accelerometer, gyroscope, and AI model), the headphones take into account the characteristics of about 50 types of workouts, count your heart rate and calories, and help you close your activity rings on your iPhone.<\/li>\n
    2. The Workout Buddy option analyzes previous workouts, provides tips, and motivates in real time.<\/li>\n
    3. With an active Apple Fitness+ subscription, you can track your heart rate, calories, and other metrics transmitted from the headphones to your smartphone screen.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      The only caveat is that the options work in conjunction with an iPhone that supports iOS 26 and artificial intelligence, and the primary language is set to English.<\/p>\n

      Live Translation<\/h2>\n

      With Live Translation, you can translate your conversation partner’s speech in real time. This feature also works with Apple Intelligence. The headphones transmit speech in a natural voice. If your conversation partner does not have this accessory or their phone does not support the AI model, you can transmit a text transcript to your smartphone.<\/p>\n

      In this case, there are also language restrictions. The feature works in German, English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese. By the end of the year, they plan to add Italian, Korean, Japanese, and a simplified version of Chinese to this list.<\/p>\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

      Hearing \u0421are<\/h2>\n

      The new AirPods Pro offers improved hearing care features. The developers have enhanced the capabilities of the comprehensive hearing system they presented last year. It can be used to check your hearing at home. A comparison of different versions of AirPods Pro showed that the third generation provides more accurate results, thanks to the new version of noise cancellation.<\/p>\n

      Incidentally, the headphones can also be used as a hearing aid. In this generation, the speech amplification option has been made automatic. It turns on in noisy places: on public transport, in restaurants, on the street. The system automatically increases the volume of voices and enhances their clarity, while reducing noise. This option is also available on AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods 4 (ANC).<\/p>\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

      Sum Up<\/h2>\n

      The developers have significantly improved the functionality of AirPods Pro 3. The main changes concern integration with artificial intelligence and health care. The sound quality has improved compared to AirPods Pro and AirPods Pro 2. But there is a caveat: to use some options, you need a smartphone with AI support and English as the primary language for the device.<\/p>\n
