On September 9, Apple revealed the highly anticipated AirPods Pro 3, the next generation of its top-end true wireless earbuds, sporting several new features and even more improvements. For instance, the AirPods Pro 3 will come with a live translation feature that allows you to communicate more efficiently in other languages.
When speaking to someone in another language, the live translation feeds right into your AirPods Pro 3. You can then speak back in your own language, and the translation will show up on your connected iPhone. Pretty nifty, right? It gets even better because you can directly communicate using the live translation without having to whip out your phone if the other person is also using the AirPods Pro 3. You hear their language translated, and they hear your language translated.
Apple has also updated the design to make these fit more people’s ears by making the earbuds smaller. They also now have foam-infused ear tips, and Apple now packages 5 different ear tip sizes with the AirPods Pro 3. Battery life has been updated as well. Making it possible to listen to music using these for even longer on a single charge. Of course, Apple’s highlighted feature is the active noise cancellation. It’s two times better than the AirPods Pro 2, and four times better than the AirPods Pro.
Where to pre-order the Apple AirPods Pro 3
While you can pre-order the Apple AirPods Pro 3 directly from Apple, you will also be able to pre-order them from other retailers as well. You can find the major retailers where you can pre-order the AirPods Pro 3 below.

Amazon
Amazon isn’t offering any special promotions or discounts for the AirPods Pro 3 but it does have them in stock for pre-orders. Amazon also doesn’t have any trade-in offers available. This means you’ll simply be paying the $249.99 retail price.
Verizon
Verizon doesn’t currently have the AirPods Pro 3 up for pre-order but it should eventually have the earbuds available for purchase, if not available for pre-order prior to the September 19 launch date. Verizon hasn’t confirmed any special promotions or discounts or trade-in offers.
AT&T
AT&T hasn’t confirmed if it will carry the AirPods Pro 3, nor has it announced any special promotions or discount offers. AT&T does sell the AirPods Pro 2, so there is a good chance it will also be carrying the AirPods Pro 3. If not during the pre-order phase, likely after the earbuds launch on September 19.
T-Mobile
T-Mobile doesn’t have the AirPods Pro 3 up for pre-order just yet, but it has confirmed that it will be carrying Apple’s new earbuds, and there is a placeholder listing for them on T-Mobile’s online store. So the AirPods Pro 3 will be available directly through T-Mobile in the near future.
Apple
Apple isn’t offering any special promotions on the AirPods Pro 3 at the moment and there are no trade-in offers like there are for the Apple Watch Series 11. However, Apple is letting customers split up the payments of the AirPods Pro 3 using Apple Card monthly installments.
