Instead of releasing <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.macobserver.com\/tips\/round-ups\/airpods-pro-4-release-date-what-to-expect-from-the-next-gen-offering\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">AirPods Pro 4<\/a>, Apple is expected to introduce a higher-end version of the current model. This new version would sit above the standard AirPods Pro 3 and bring advanced features focused on artificial intelligence and spatial awareness.<\/p>\n<p>The idea is similar to how Apple sells AirPods 4 in two versions, one with active noise cancellation and one without it. In this case, Apple would keep the regular AirPods Pro 3 at its current price while adding a premium version with new hardware. That approach allows Apple to target users who want more advanced features without changing the base model.<\/p>\n<p>According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the new AirPods Pro will <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.macobserver.com\/news\/apples-next-airpods-pro-4-may-add-cameras-for-gesture-control\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">include tiny infrared cameras<\/a> that can see the surrounding environment. He says these cameras will support air gesture controls and improve how the earbuds interact with Vision Pro. This setup would create a more immersive audio experience when users wear both devices together.<\/p>\n<p>An Apple leaker known as Kosutami <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Kosutami_Ito\/status\/2026130429196267949\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">also claims<\/a> that the infrared cameras will connect the earbuds with Apple Intelligence. Reports suggest that Visual Intelligence will play a central role, allowing the AirPods Pro to process environmental data and support Apple\u2019s broader wearable AI plans.<\/p>\n<p>Expected Models and Pricing<\/p>\n<p>If the rumors are accurate, Apple will offer two AirPods Pro 3 options:<\/p>\n<p>AirPods Pro 3: $249<\/p>\n<p>AirPods Pro 3 with Cameras: Estimated $299 to $349 or higher<\/p>\n<p>Apple has never sold two AirPods Pro models at the same time, but the AirPods 4 strategy shows that the company is open to tiered pricing.<\/p>\n<p>Release Timeline<\/p>\n<p>Apple usually announces new AirPods in September alongside iPhone updates. Based on past launches, a September or October release appears most likely for the camera equipped AirPods Pro with Apple Intelligence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Apple plans to expand its AirPods Pro lineup this year, even though AirPods Pro 3 launched less than&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":316122,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[85,46,125],"class_list":{"0":"post-316121","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-il","9":"tag-israel","10":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/316121","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=316121"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/316121\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/316122"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=316121"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=316121"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=316121"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
