Thinking about some AirPods this Christmas? This is everything we know about the future AirPods Pro 3

AirPods have become one of the favorite Christmas gifts. With each generation, Apple has improved the sound quality, design, and connectivity, making these headphones a standard. This year, although we have seen the arrival of the new AirPods 4 and an update for the AirPods Max, the much-anticipated AirPods Pro 3 are still not here. So, especially if we are considering AirPods for this Christmas, let’s see what we can expect from this next generation.

The AirPods Pro 3 will arrive in the fall of 2025

The first and most important thing is to know when we will see the AirPods Pro 3. According to rumors, the launch of this new generation is scheduled for the fall of 2025. If we look at previous versions, Apple seems to prefer the months of September or October—along with the iPhones—for this type of presentation. The wait is, therefore, considerably long.

The design of the AirPods Pro 3 promises to be the first to change significantly since the introduction of the originals in 2019. Here we expect greater comfort, as well as a better fit. The latter translates into a better seal of the ear canal, which will improve sound quality and noise isolation.

The heart of this new generation will be the H3 chip, which will improve sound and noise cancellation. The jump from H1 to H2 brought cancellation that doubled the effectiveness and a much richer frequency range. With the H3, we can expect even more refinement in audio and new features like Transparency Mode.

Finally, rumors suggest that the AirPods Pro 3 will integrate new health capabilities. Apple is working, as far as we know, on sensors to accurately measure body temperature. This data can support more functions and monitoring of our health.

All in all, if we are considering upgrading our AirPods, we might wonder if we should wait until 2025. The answer will depend on our needs, but what is clear is that the AirPods Pro 3 seem to be designed to mark a before and after.
