New AirPods Pro 3 are on their way, and we've already had a sneak peek at the upcoming earphones.
Apple's Upcoming AirPods Pro 3: What to Expect
Rumours are swirling about Apple's latest addition to its popular AirPods line, the AirPods Pro 3. While no official confirmation has been made, several sources suggest that the new model will be unveiled at Apple's keynote event on September 9, 2025, at 7:00 PM CET.
The AirPods Pro 3 is rumoured to offer improved sound quality with better dynamics and sound spectrum, as well as enhanced noise reduction capabilities. Reports also suggest that the new model could include a new chip, the H3, which is expected to provide power for improved noise reduction and better sound, potentially enabling a longer battery life.
In addition to these audio enhancements, the AirPods Pro 3 may also include new, extended health features. Sources like Business Insider, Vodafone, Curved, and Nau report rumours that the AirPods Pro 3 will include heart rate monitoring, body temperature measurement via an in-ear sensor, and integrated hearing tests to assess hearing ability. However, these remain unconfirmed rumours primarily based on leaks and expert speculation, with no official confirmation from Apple yet.
If these rumours are true, the AirPods Pro 3 could provide additional data for the Health app, potentially making an additional smartwatch unnecessary for some users.
The keynote event will also feature the presentation of the iPhone 17 and the Apple Watch Series 11. The AirPods Pro 3 are expected to have a sleek design with changes to both the headphones and their charging case.
It's important to note that a price increase for the AirPods Pro 3 is possible due to tariffs imposed by US President Trump. However, the exact price of the AirPods Pro 3 remains unclear, with reports suggesting that it will cost at least 279 euros.
The current AirPods Pro are three years old, so it's no surprise that Apple is rumoured to be working on a new model. Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the September 9th event.
