Will AirPods 3 Price and specs upgrade to a new level?

It may introduce some new features along with signature ones from the AirPods Pro such as adaptive sound, customized fit, and noise cancellation.

As the tech challenges have been on the peak between various companies, will Apple be able to win against Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus, Microsoft Surface Earbuds, and others since all of them are trying the hardest to provide many special and new features on the earpiece?

If we look up to the twitter world and Prosser we might not have to wait much for Airpods 3 dangling from our ears.

Airpods 3 Release date

The AirPods 3 releases remain unknown, though recent reports suggest it will hit store shelves either in late 2020 or 2021.

COVID-19 outbreak might make a difference in schedule. Tech host and Apple leaker Jon Prosser pointed to a Possible May reveal for the new earbuds.

Prosser claims that the AirPods were initially meant for a March 2020 Apple event, and will now get announced next month along with the awaited MacBook Pro 2020 13-inch!

New AirPods (which were supposed to be at the March Event) are now ready to go.

Probably alongside the MacBook Pro next month.

Airpods 3 Price

Similar to the current AirPods (from $159 / £159 / AU$249).

Not having “Pro” engraved in it implies the AirPods 3 will be cheaper than the AirPods Pro.

Then we can assume it will share a similar MSRP too, which falls around the sub-$200 price point: $159 for the basic model and $199 with wireless charging case.

There are no solid rumors suggesting the AirPods 3 will ship with sweat or water resistance. It’s looking more like a hard yes, though Apple might want to rethink its strategy.

AirPods 3 could only benefit from sleeker shades like Space Gray, Midnight Green, or any of the other enticing iPhone 11colorways.

AirPods 3 Specs

A new version of the standard AirPods could adopt a slightly shorter design like the AirPods Pro.

Water-resistance has long been rumored as has some noise reduction technology.

They are unlikely to have full active noise canceling because that would require a tight seal and, as such, will surely remain the preserve of the more expensive AirPods Pro.

There could also be a number of other hardware upgrades including a new chip, longer battery life, and more talk time.

They’ll surely once again have a wireless charging case but we think it unlikely they’ll have any kind of noise-canceling, instead leaving that to the AirPods Pro.

What we want from the Apple AirPods 3

Bluetooth: Bluetooth 4.2 is positively dated these days so Bluetooth 5 and aptX HD support is what we seek for.

Longer battery life: Competitors are way ahead with 10 to 11 hours of battery life its time apple must catch up to that.

Noise cancellation: After bringing ANC to the AirPods Pro, the worst thing Apple could do is not offer any form of noise cancellation on the AirPods 3.

Fitness-tracking sensors: Having an activity monitor built into the AirPods 3 would be an awesome secondary option for avid exercisers.
