The AirPods 3 are Apple’s 2022 true wireless earbuds, making them the perfect pairing with any iPhone.
The earbuds feature the famous lightweight AirPods design, with a slightly shorter stem to match the AirPods Pro and no silicone tips. This makes them a more comfortable option for those who don’t like headphones that burrow into their ear the way the Pro line does, though this is a matter of personal preference.
The earbuds are sweat and water-resistant up to IPX4, making them suitable for working out, while the six-hour battery life in each bud should be enough to get you through most long journeys before popping them back into their 30-hour case for a boost.
Powered by Apple’s own H1 chipset, the AirPods 3 offer improved connectivity and faster pairing than their predecessors, along with lower gaming latency and voice-enabled Siri access. Adaptive EQ automatically adjusts the sound to fit your ear, while spatial audio support uses dynamic head tracking to create an immersive, 3D listening experience.
“[The AirPods 3] are a significantly better product than they were previously”, wrote editor Max Parker in his review of the headphones. “Audio is warmer, with more bass but crisper vocals, while Spatial Audio shines in certain instances. Add in a smarter design, IPX4 resistance and a longer battery, and you have a pair of earbuds that should please most iOS users”.
