Apple posts new firmware for the AirPods Pro 3, AirPods Pro 2, Beats Studio Buds

Apple is working on camera-equipped AirPods that should arrive in late 2027, says Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.

Apple has released new firmware for the AirPods Pro 3, AirPods Pro 2, and Beats Studio Buds.

Apple has a support document about the firmware, but it tells practically nothing. Installation is automatic when the AirPods and Studio Buds are in their charging case, the case is plugged into a charger, and the linked iPhone is in close proximity and connected to Wi-Fi. You can check the installed firmware revision in the “General” settings menu, by selecting “About,” then “AirPods.” AppleInsider says the update contains “miscellaneous minor bug fixes.”
