The armpit temperature probe that connected to the iPhone was predicted to be a poor seller. The rectal temperature one never made it past prototype.

Matte black version please. I think it's time Apple breaks from tradition.
Yeah “hit-or-miss leaker“ Gurman that is, but aomehow they only use that phrase with Majin Bu, lol. But yeah, MR loves Gurman. Peak tech journalism 👌 LOL
These are likely a day one purchase for me, AirPods Pro 2 is probably my favorite Apple product in recent memory.
My gen 2 pros need replaced badly, my right ear bud has developed the same defect where they click or flutter, in noise cancelation or transparency mode, like the previous gen 1 did and so far Apple has not done any type of extended replacement program like they did with gen 1 pros. I made an appt at the Apple Store so that hopefully creating a case would maybe get the ball rolling on a potential repair/replacement program for gen 2.
Air Pods (including Pro) have been an amazing product — living in my ear every day since first released. With the amount of use I have for them, even small improvements matter. Air Pods Pro 3 will be an instant buy — replacing my Air Pods Pro 2.
OTOH: AirPods Max have not been getting as much use as they deserve — Pro is just so much more convenient and still sound good enough.

White only has proven to work great. It is not about customer preference, it is about building "everyone is using these, thus they must be great" recognition.
I've had my Pro 2s since launch, and besides wanting USB-C for charging, my left one makes like a hissing noise when I first put it in that is annoying but mostly goes away in about a minute and not noticeable once sound is playing.
I'll likely get these when they come out as a replacement because besides that issue I've really liked them.

To their credit, the current generation is very good and hard to beat in terms of hardware.
Software is also very mature.
All that gen 1 was supposed to be…
I wish you had the option to not do anything when you touch them, Too many times I get a call disconnected by adjusting the fit.
This feature is still coming, however it won't be supported at launch. It'll be added in with a later software update. Yet another feature that Apple's team is pretending to have before it's ready to seem relevant in the AI craze.
AirPods Pro 3 have been in mass production for a few months now and will be releasing next month.

I had APP1 and since they came out APP2, I really like my APP2, exp the ANC.
But - I sure hope they come with greater amplification because i need them as hearing aids, and even when using them for listening to podcasts and movies, etc., they are barely sufficient for me. If apple doesn't come with greater amplitude, I'm going to have to buy hearing aids one of these days, and that will be the end of AirPods for me.

Wired Apple earbuds will stay in place all day despite the weight of the wire. No version of the AP’s are good for more than 20 minutes. Drives me crazy.
If the translation function works the way it’s promised I might have to get a pair and hold them in place with painters tape.

According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman " If it rains the third tuesday in september, chrismas will be in december "
What a genius!!

Some of these articles are like Groundhod Day. I read them and I feel like I've read them before.
In the last years, audio equipment has made huge advancements thanks to Adaptive EQ, Spatial Audio, and the like. That’s especially true for headphones.
AirPods today are a totally different beast than the standard iPod earphones from 2008, say.
Apart from that, I have had AirPods Pro since their release and battery life was never an issue – for years now. That’s not bad for an accessory like headphones. You know how many headphones are being thrown away every day because they are meant for one-time use? That’s crazy!
