According to tipster Kosutami on X, Apple could soon launch the AirPods Pro 3. The AirPods Pro 2 was launched towards the end of 2022. Previously, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman speculated that Apple may launch the AirPods Pro 3 sometime in 2025.
According to the tipster, the AirPods Pro 3 will offer a much better ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) feature as compared to the AirPods Pro 2. Although, he didn’t share any more details about it. Apple advertises the AirPods Pro 2 to feature an up to twice as capable active noise cancellation system as compared to the first generation AirPods Pro. It will be interesting to see how much of an improvement the AirPods Pro 3 brings.
In addition to the improved ANC feature, the AirPods Pro 3 is also rumored to introduce new health-tracking features.
Mark Gurman also previously speculated that Apple may have plans to add the noise cancellation feature to the AirPods 4, which is expected to launch sometime in late 2024 or early 2025. According to recent reports, the AirPods 4 could launch as soon as September this year alongside the iPhone 16 lineup.
Notably, the AirPods 4 is expected to come in two different versions. Both of them are rumored to feature a revised design that aims to offer a better fit and sound quality. The charging case could also be updated with a Type-C port. One of the two versions of the AirPods 4 is also said to equip a speaker in the charging case that can play a sound for Find My Location tracking.
In terms of core configuration, AirPods 4 is expected to be equipped with Apple’s self-developed H2 audio analysis chip, which is expected to have a higher computing power. It could be due to the addition of noise cancellation and it may also offer slightly better sound quality.
