Apple AirPods Pro 3

Our verdict: Apple - On sale now. The AirPods Pro 3 is the AirPods pick for a buyer who wants Apple health and hearing features in an earbud: heart-rate sensing, Live Translation, a hearing test and Hearing Aid support, up to 8 hours of listening with noise cancellation on and 24 hours with the case, and an IP57 rating that covers both the buds and the case. The trade-off is that the headline features are health and hearing rather than battery: 8 hours with noise cancellation on is solid rather than leading, and the price is well above the budget earbuds in this batch. At $199.00 at Amazon.com, checked 2026-11-04, it suits an iPhone owner who will use the hearing and translation features; a buyer who only wants noise cancellation and long battery should compare the Pixel Buds 2a or the OnePlus Buds 4 first.
