AirPods Pro 3 don’t include a USB-C charging cable in the box

I have the AirPods Pro 2 and just use my watch 8 charger to charge them. I don’t even carry the wire charger.

Five Features Coming to AirPods Pro 3

I’ve used my AirPods Pro 2 all day (7+ hours) almost every day for about a year and a half. For $249 that’s insane value for money and you bet I will be getting these in a heartbeat.

AirPods get five new features in iOS 26, but three require an H2 chip (“Automatic pausing when you fall asleep, Studio-quality audio recording, Camera remote, Automatic switching for CarPlay, Enhanced voice quality on calls”)

The AirPods Pro 2 was the best launch day pick up I ever did in the past decade. And it keeps getting better 😮‍💨

Performative Man Starter Pack

Unless you’re into upper level audiophile territory the effect of Bluetooth is negligible. High end wireless earbuds like AirPods Pro 2/3 are far better sounding than any earbuds or IEMs under $100 (even IEMs in the same price range are comparable), let alone cheap earbuds.

Music producer review of AirPods Pro 3

I’ll tell you that as someone who listens to mostly Electronic music, it has been an absolutely amazing experience listening to music with the APP3 and the updated auto mix feature. Love the bass improvement over the APP2 and using the L sized foam tips on my APP3 makes them more comfortable and the

Apple leak hints that AirPods Pro 3 are coming soon

I a skipped AirPods Pro 2, since my 1s still worked quite well but now they are 4 or so years old. The battery still works for all the duration I need it to, but it'll probably fall below that threshold in the next year or so, and so new models would be very welcome!

AirPods sales totaled over $18 billion last year, more than all of Nintendo | Earbuds likely to become Apple's 3rd biggest product behind iPhone and Mac

I can’t speak for the normal AirPods, but the AirPods Pro 2 are by far the best sounding earbuds I’ve ever used.

What if I stop enjoying music in ALL my headphones?

No. It’s just you’ll have a preference. I love my Airpods Pro 2s when I’m outside, with noise-cancelling on etc. I also love my sound system at home to listen to the same music properly. I’m not gonna be carrying my subwoofers and speakers around with me when I’m at the gym etc, also priorities are

Am I the only one that thls annoys?

Would you ask someone to take out their hearing aids? AirPods pro 2 and later are authorized along with Apples software by the FDA in the U.S. and many other countries as OTC hearing aids.

"Linus was right about Airpods Pro 3" - A Response from DMS

Just as an example from the Harman research, did you know most women actually prefer much less bass than men do? By that metric, most women are going to find the APP3 to sound worse than the APP2, simply because it has more bass. This is just one tiny finding from the decades worth of research done
