AirPods Pro 3 Won't Get 'Major' Audio or Active Noise Cancellation Improvements

They'll just downgrade the previous ones...or the H3 chip is speed wise the same as the H2, they just added support for a faster memory and called that enough of a reason to upgrade.
Tim gets informed the "New AirPods Pro" are good to go, and doesn't ask any questions as long as the team met their budget.
Then he goes back to his office, hugs his Vision Pro and says "They just don't understand you, they just don't understand you, they just don't understand you" and then removes his pants and fondles it. The one Apple Car looks on in approval.
Boy that took a turn.

AirPods Pro 2 already sound great (that is to those who can keep them securely in their ears). These are basically just earphones after all. I remember a time when people couldn't care less about earphones upgrades. I used to change them only when one of the cables began to be finicky and I could only hear sound in one hear if I didn't hold the connector firmly into place.
Companies talk about the environment but can't stop to try to find ways to upgrade pretty standard items like earphones and watches that used to last for many, many years. Guess some people will by happy to have a camera looking at their ear canals while monitoring their heartbeats... if their watch doesn't do it already. Oh well.

He didn’t say no improvements, just no “major improvements.” Which of course he can spin any which way when the new AirPods come out. If the improvements are significant, he can still say they’re not “major.” Easy way to make sure any result can be chocked up as a correct prediction.
Win-win.
Win-win.
Might as well get a heavily discounted pair of AirPods Pro 2 then 🤷♂️
Gurman must have some high-placed sources to bring us this info a whole 21 hours in advance.
I wish they left room in the case for larger aftermarket tips, particularly the long triple-flange type. Depending on what happens I may do a DIY case mod.
So it’s a quasi-upgrade. Something to keep the ‘new product launches’ tick box checked.
There used to be a drink called Clayton’s, and the catch cry was, “The drink you have when you’re not having a drink.”
Clayton’s ad
Perhaps Apple is becoming the tech you have when you don’t have tech.
I’m looking forward to seeing all the forum ‘yawns’ 🥱 after the next Apple event 😁

Other brands don’t do Spatial Audio or lossless from Vision Pro
hoping for some improvements, but I’m curious to see the “new” design.
Yes, all the 12 Vision Pro users dream has come true finally 😇
Regardless on what the 3rd gen AirPods are like. Apple has a bad track record with 3rd gen hardware.
I beg to differ. The iPhone 3GS was a much-needed upgrade from the 3G. iPhone 3G on iPhoneOS 4 was trash.
LMAO, I give zero Fs to give about heart rate monitoring in my AirPods Pro. I have an Apple Watch for that. Curious how many people pony up for AirPods Pro that don’t have any kind of fitness tracker? I would guess 10% or less. I figured new AirPods Pro would always be a day one purchase for me. I guess not this year! Especially if the real upgrade is actually coming next year, which has me skeptical.
