AirPods 3 have a surprising hidden feature, and here’s what it’s for

[Chris Smith]

The 2021 MacBook Pro was the most important thing to come out of Apple’s Unleashed event on Monday. Apple stunned the world with the next-gen M1 Pro and M1 Max chips that will power the new machine. But many fans watching live were also waiting for another announcement from Apple.

That's the AirPods 3 refresh that appeared in numerous leaks this year. Apple finally delivered the AirPods 3 announcement, confirming many of the rumors that preceded the event. The new earphones come with a significant redesign that makes them look like the AirPods Pro.

However, they’re not identical copies as the new AirPods 3 don’t feature removable tips like the Pro. Also, the third-gen AirPods do not support active noise cancelation.
