We gave the AirPods 3 an overall rating of 4/5 stars and our Editor's Choice award. AirPods 3 feature a new look, Adaptive EQ, spatial audio and Enhanced Find My AirPods.
One of the best features of the AirPods 3 is automatic switching between devices. In one test, our reviewer instantly went from a video meeting on a MacBook Pro 14 to an iPhone 13 Pro Max's music playlist without missing a beat.
As for design, the AirPods 3 look nearly identical to the AirPods Pro. They retain the shiny plastic finish of its predecessors. Just about the only difference between the AirPods 3 and the AirPods Pro is the larger pressure equalization vent on the Pro version.
