As expected, Apple introduced the AirPods 3 at the "Unleashed." event. We have summarized what the new Apple earphones can do below.
Reports about new AirPods have been with us all year long. After a launch in September was originally announced, the time has finally come. Apple has introduced the AirPods 3. As part of the update, not only was the range of functions refined, but the design was also revised. Thanks to their shorter stems, they now look more like the AirPods Pro than ever before. But what exactly can they do compared to their predecessors? If you believe Apple's words, they deliver significantly better audio performance and offer better bass. But the absolute highlight is the integration of spatial audio and head tracking.

The battery life has also been significantly improved. According to Apple, the brand new AirPods 3 will offer up to six hours of battery life, and thanks to the case, this increases to 30 hours. expressed Greg Joswiak, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Marketing at Apple, said:
AirPods changed wireless headphones forever with their groundbreaking design, incredible sound, and magical experience. We're excited to introduce the next generation of AirPods, featuring Adaptive EQ and Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking for unparalleled sound and seamless interaction across Apple devices—making the world's best-selling headphones even better.

The new earbuds have some Pro features but do not have active noise cancellation. In terms of price and availability, Apple says that the AirPods 3 can be pre-ordered starting today for $179 (Euro price still pending). Delivery is expected to begin on Tuesday, October 26. (Image: Apple)
