CNET on MSNEverything Announced at Apple Event 2025: iPhone Air, iPhone 17, AirPods Pro 3 and New Apple Watches
Apple's annual September reveal of its latest mobile devices featured the brand new iPhone Air, AirPods Pro 3 with heart-rate sensing, the iPhone 17 lineup and new Apple Watches.
Apple's iPhone 17 fall event introduced the slimmed-down iPhone Air, AirPods Pro 3, and new Apple Watch Series 11 and Ultra 3 models.
As 9to5Mac reports, Apple's new Live Translation feature will be extended to AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods 4 with ANC. During the keynote, Apple demoed the feature on the new AirPods Pro 3, but didn't mention compatibility with earlier earbuds. The wider support was mentioned in the footnotes of a press release.
The AirPods Pro 3 Apple introduced at the iPhone 17 event yesterday have better active noise cancellation and foam-filled ear tips, but their most important new feature is a subtle one: Apple came up with even more reasons for you to never take them out.
Our AirPods Pro 3 rumor round-up certainly contains all manner of exciting anticipated features, from a heart-rate and temperature sensor (as seen on the Apple-owned Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 sport earbuds) to a charging case with a touchscreen, and an embedded camera to facilitate real-time hand gestures.
