The Apple AirPods Pro 3 are the latest generation of Apple’s flagship wireless earbuds, released in September 2025 with the biggest round of upgrades the AirPods Pro line has seen since launch. The Pro 3 deliver up to 2x more active noise cancellation than the Pro 2, add a heart rate sensor for workout tracking without an Apple Watch, and introduce Live Translation that handles real-time multilingual conversations directly in your ear. A redesigned acoustic architecture, IP57 sweat and water resistance, and 8 hours of battery life per charge round out the spec sheet for what Apple calls the best in-ear ANC earbuds on the market.

Excellent earbuds from Apple that improve how you listen

Noise cancellation runs through redesigned foam-infused ear tips paired with ultra-low-noise microphones and the H2 chip, which together deliver up to 2x the cancellation of the Pro 2 and 4x the cancellation of the original AirPods Pro. Five ear tip sizes including a new XXS option ship in the box for finding the right fit on smaller ears that earlier AirPods didn’t accommodate well.

Live Translation handles real-time multilingual conversations through Apple Intelligence. Hold a conversation with someone speaking a different language and the AirPods translate their speech into your ear in real time while showing live transcription on the iPhone for the other person. English, French, German, Portuguese, and Spanish are supported at launch, with Italian, Japanese, Korean, and Simplified Chinese arriving later. The feature requires an Apple Intelligence-compatible iPhone.
