Looks like a Pro, but without noise canceling

Five years after launch A native of AirPods, and after two years of a minor update that included the addition of wireless charging, Apple has revealed a full review of its AirPods. The 3rd generation headphones now have a design similar to that of AirPods ProAnd while it does have features like adaptive EQ and conversational audio enhancement, it unfortunately doesn’t include active noise cancellation.

AirPods get a (relatively) new design

The distinctive design of the included white wired headphones with iPhones For over a decade it’s been Apple’s first true wireless earbuds, but the new third-generation AirPods have finally embraced a slimmer aesthetic combined with a shorter stick-shaped ear-piece design, making them feel more like AirPods Pro. What distinguishes the new AirPods from the AirPods Pro is the lack of silicone ear cushions.

Like the original AirPods, the new earbuds are designed to fit in your ears rather than fit snugly into the ear canal with a soft silicone seal. As a result, users who have had trouble keeping AirPods in their ears may still have trouble with their new AirPods. The design decision also means that Apple won’t bring active noise cancellation to the new AirPods, as the silicone tips (which often come in multiple sizes to ensure the best fit) are an essential part of keeping unwanted noise out of the ear. . This is a feature that Apple apparently plans to keep exclusively for AirPods Pro and AirPods Max.

“Professional” level features, except for noise cancellation

In addition to its new design, Apple brings some other features from the AirPods Pro to the third generation AirPods, which until now had fairly basic functions. Adaptive EQ will automatically adjust the frequencies of what’s being heard based on how sounds are measured in the ear, so it doesn’t matter how you use headphones, or how you change your position while running, for example, the sound quality should always be perfect.
