**Android Central Verdict: AirPods Pro 3 Review**
The AirPods Pro 3 represent Apple’s most ambitious audio venture to date, aiming to tackle persistent fit issues while enhancing sound quality, active noise cancellation (ANC), and battery longevity. The outcome is a mixed experience; although the sound quality and noise cancellation show marked improvements, the fit continues to be problematic for some users, and the extended earbud battery life is counterbalanced by a reduced case battery life.
**Pros:**
– Outstanding ANC capabilities, especially with the right fit.
– Superb sound quality, albeit with a slightly pronounced bass.
– Flexible charging solutions: Qi2, USB-C, and Apple Watch pucks compatible.
– Eight hours of battery life from the earbuds.
– Features a heart rate sensor for monitoring workouts.
**Cons:**
– Fit may still be variable, influenced by ear shape.
– Four hours less battery life, including the charging case, in comparison to AirPods Pro 2.
– Live translation functionality might not meet expectations.
– Limited feature compatibility on Android and Windows devices.
**Conclusion:**
The AirPods Pro 3 deliver noticeable advancements in sound quality and noise cancellation, positioning them as a strong player in the wireless earbuds arena. However, the fit continues to pose a potential concern for some users, and the battery life compromises may dissuade those familiar with the AirPods Pro 2. While they shine in specific aspects, they may not cater to everyone’s needs, particularly those utilizing non-Apple gadgets.
