Apple AirPods Pro 3. Generation

Die neuen Apple AirPods Pro 3 überzeugen mit verbessertem ANC, präzisem Klang und integrierter Pulsmessung – perfekt für die Apple-Welt. Allerdings nur für die Apple Welt.

Apple verpasst seinen Premium-In-Ears Airpods Pro 3 eine Frischzellenkur mit längerem Akku, überarbeitetem Sound und Herzfrequenzmesser.

Die Apple AirPods Pro 3 machen einen weiteren Schritt in Richtung Perfektion. Die neuen, foam-gefüllten Ohreinsätze sorgen für besseren Sitz und stärkeres Noise Cancelling, während das Case vielseitiger geworden ist und sich über Qi, Apple-Watch-Ladegerät oder USB-C laden lässt. Neu ist auch ein Herzfrequenzsensor, der zugleich Einfluss auf den Klang hat – der Bass wirkt kräftiger, ohne an Kontrolle zu verlieren. Trotz des fehlenden EQs und größeren Case bleiben die AirPods Pro 3 die Referenz für iPhone-Nutzer.

Apples neues Flaggschiff ist gelandet! Die Apple AirPods Pro 3 sollen ihre Vorgänger in jeder Hinsicht überflügeln, aber gelingt das auch? Und warum fehlt ein zentrales Feature in Europa?

With improved sound and ANC, the AirPods Pro 3 are a well-balanced, enjoyable and intuitive pair of premium wireless earbuds – especially for iOS users

iPhone owners who value great, shut-out-the-world noise cancellation need look no further than this set of earbuds, if their budget allows; for ANC they're truly remarkable. This is Apple, so forget higher-res codes (no aptX or LDAC here – although that's nothing new for the iOS-ensconced) and I do wonder at this point whether a dedicated app might really be necessary – even for Apple devices – given the tricky-to-install extra perks such as Live Translation. But if you're prepared to consult Apple's support pages while setting them up (and pay that little bit extra over the launch price of the previous set), there's so much to enjoy this time around. A little extra stamina would've been welcome, but what there is here you'll definitely enjoy, especially with heart-rate monitoring and excellent personalized head-tracked spatial audio…

There are many welcome upgrades here, from battery life to improved sound and more capable ANC. But, for me, the addition of a heart rate monitor and the far more comfortable fit are the big reasons to plump for the AirPods 3.

In this AirPods Pro 3 review, I found Apple has finally delivered the upgrade iPhone users have been waiting for. With improved battery life, stronger noise cancellation, and smart new features, the AirPods Pro 3 are the best AirPods you can buy right now.

They cost the same at a hefty $249, but Apple's third-generation noise-canceling earbuds have improved in all the key areas, including fit, noise cancellation, sound quality and battery life.

The AirPods Pro 3 refine an already impressive formula, making the popular wireless earbuds better than ever with leading noise cancellation, first-rate audio, and a list of compelling features the competition simply can't match.

The most significant update to the AirPods lineup delivers a host of ANC-powered improvements, including Live Translation. Plus, the arrival of heart-rate tracking makes the AirPods Pro 3 a more capable workout partner.
