Everything Announced – iPhone 17, AirPods Pro 3, Apple Watch & More
At its September 2025 event, Apple made its biggest leap yet, unveiling a groundbreaking lineup headlined by a completely redesigned iPhone family, revolutionary AirPods Pro with live translation, and life-saving health features in the Apple Watch. Here’s everything announced.
AirPods Pro 3: Breakthrough Audio and Live Translation
The next generation of the world’s most popular headphones is here. AirPods Pro 3 deliver a monumental leap in audio performance and innovative new capabilities.
- Revolutionary Sound: A custom multi-port acoustic architecture provides breathtaking spatial audio, wider soundstage, transformed bass, and stunning vocal focus across music, shows, and calls.
- Best-in-Class ANC: New foam-infused ear tips, ultra-low-noise mics, and advanced computational audio combine to deliver twice the Active Noise Cancellation of the previous generation. For original AirPods Pro users, it’s four times more effective.
- Live Translation: A game-changer for communication. Powered by Apple Intelligence, a simple gesture activates real-time translation during conversations. It works one-on-one and is even more powerful when both people are wearing AirPods Pro 3.
- Perfect Fit & Fitness: Redesigned from over 10,000 ear scans, each AirPod is smaller and shaped to the natural ear canal for superior stability. They are also more durable with IP57 sweat and water resistance. A new integrated heart rate sensor turns them into a powerful fitness tool, tracking workouts directly from the Fitness app with an AI-powered Workout Buddy for motivation.
- Battery Life: 8 hours of listening with ANC (up from 6) and a huge 10 hours in Transparency mode for hearing aid users.
- Price & Availability: $249. Pre-order today, available September 19.
