Features to look forward to in the upcoming AirPods Pro 3

New H3 Chip

According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the AirPods Pro 3 will feature a brand new H3 chip. While some of Apple's chips typically offer only minor improvements, the AirPods Pro's H1 chip was three years old before the H2 was introduced.

This wait has led to significant upgrades to the H-series chips. The H2 chip has improved audio experience and doubled noise cancellation compared to the previous generation. With the H3 chip, users can expect many new features and improved battery life.

New design

Gurman also said the AirPods Pro 3 will have a new design, although specifics have yet to be announced. While we don't expect major changes, there may be some minor tweaks to the size and fit.
