That was the real question, because they were promising the Live Translation thing before.

Now there are rumours that there will be a Pro 4 next year. I think that sounds dumb, why wouldn't people just wait? AirPods aren't an every-year kind of thing. But there it is. And my Pro 2's are still working good.

I would hesitate to even call that a rumor. Is there any conceivable reason to put out a new version next year I’m unaware of?

You’re one hoopy frood

I’m pretty sure the Pixel Buds had live translation a number of years ago, but I like the joke nonetheless

Really debating to finally upgrade from the original AirPods Pro to the AirPods Pro 3.

[–] parody@lemmings.world 2 points 1 month ago

Time to wait for a sale? MSRP is hefty, otherwise great upgrade.

Unless you want the better ANC or the heart rate sensor, the Pro 2 seems pretty similar and that will likely go on sale with the new model.

Yeah, I’m aiming for the NC. I pretty much permanently wear AirPods when I’m outside because it helps against loud noises, avoids Hyperacusis and keeps Tinnitus at a minimum.

What about replaceable battery feature? JK these are still disposable electronics.

[–] Veedem@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Only works on phone models that support Apple Intelligence.

Oh well. I’m sticking with my 15 Plus

I like using headphones but should I be interested in these? I’m no fan of in ear buds but I like noise cancellation and good mic quality for phone calls

I just bought a pair of Sony WF-100XM5 earbuds because every pair of AirPods I’ve owned since 2019 has experienced the dreaded rumbling. I wonder if they fixed it with this version…
