The AirPods Pro 3 Bring Fitness Tracking, Live Translation, and The Best ANC Yet
We just got to see what true nothing ness sounds like with the new AirPods Pro 3. They were just announced at Apple’s event, and they focus on sound quality, fitness features, and better experiences. It is priced at $249, with pre-orders starting today, and shipping September 19th.
Design
The new AirPod Pro 3s are smaller so they are more secure. What also helps with a secure fit is a new design and foam-infused ear tips, that just let them stay in a lot better. The ear tips now come in 5 sizes, and the earphones are built with IP57 dust, sweat, and water resistance. The first in any AirPod.
