New Apple AirPods Pro 3 have a heart rate sensor and real-time translation feature

During the presentation of the iPhone 17, Apple announced the third generation of wireless headphones AirPods Pro. The model received an updated design, a new H3 chip and several features that were not previously available in the line.

Key changes include a more compact headphone body, five eartip options for a better fit, and increased protection against moisture and sweat to the IP57 standard. Apple claims that the Active Noise Cancellation in the new model works twice as effectively as in the previous generation.

AirPods Pro 3 also support real-time translation, powered by Apple Intelligence, and allow you to track your heart rate thanks to a built-in sensor. Separately, the company emphasized improved spatial sound.

The battery life of the headphones has increased: the headphones provide up to 8 hours of music listening and up to 10 hours in hearing aid mode.

AirPods Pro 3 are now available for pre-order for $249. They will be available for purchase starting September 19.
