Community Reviews

AirPods Pro 3 are positioned as a comfort and battery-life upgrade, with tighter fit, strong active noise cancellation, and slightly better sound than earlier AirPods Pro models. The biggest gains seem to be in fit and everyday use, especially for ears that never loved the older buds. The main hesitation is value, since the price has been $10 lower recently and the jump from Pro 2 is described as modest unless older earbuds no longer hold a charge or the new AI and translation features matter. A solid refinement rather than a dramatic overhaul.

Common Questions (5)

  • They are a modest upgrade rather than a big jump: ANC and sound are a bit better, and some find the fit or comfort improved. If your AirPods Pro 2 still hold a charge and work well, the upgrade is usually not necessary.

  • Battery life is a common reason to switch, especially if older AirPods no longer hold a charge well. Some users also use the Pro 3 more than AirPods 2 because of the battery life, and older pairs can still last for years if the battery remains healthy.

  • The Pro 3 are reported to fit tighter and feel more comfortable, with some users saying they fit a lot better in the ear. That improved fit can also make them easier to wear for longer sessions.

  • The new AI/translation feature is the main reason to buy them for some shoppers, but the translation experience may not meet expectations. If you do not care about that feature, the earbuds are described as essentially the same as prior versions.

  • $179 is not the lowest recent price; they were reportedly $10 cheaper just before Prime Day and again less than a week ago. That makes this deal decent, but not a standout low.

So I have a pair I bought from Target for $179.99 and here is my take:
  • ANC is pretty good on them
  • They are a tighter fit
  • Sound is good just like the pros 2.
Honestly dont see a reason to upgrade unless your Pros 2 broke.

They need to just make $179 the standard price and cut the back and forth with all these "sales" recently

I have a pair of 1st-gen AirPod Pros which are nice companions to my Bose 700 headphones. No complains for what I use them for (exercise and outdoor activities). Am I missing anything by not upgrading to the 3rd-gen ones and keeping my 1st-gens, or is it a worthwhile upgrade at this price?

Agreed. It already seems like it is. If I recall the last generation hovered around that price after a while with sales around $160.

Guys, do you think there's any chance the price will drop back to $169 like it was a week ago? I feel like it might go down again on the last day of the Prime sale, but I'm also worried it could sell out before then. What do you think?

The more I read, the more it sounds like a "wait until your current pair dies" kind of upgrade.

Worth the upgrade from 2nd gen pros?
Only if you want the "talk to AI" feature. Otherwise it's essentially the same

I didn't notice any benefits. I bought them for the translating feature which I thought would be better but it wasn't. And I'm told they sound weird on calls

I'd say yes if you can get a better deal. They sound a little better and fit a lot better (in my ears) than the 2's
They don't sound better to new and I don't feel the anc is noticeably better but they are way more comfortable

They will drop back to $169 right after you decide to buy them for $179.
