AirPods Pro 3: Apple Adds Live Translation for Real-Time Conversations

Apple has introduced an exciting new feature with its AirPods Pro 3 — Live Translation, a tool that can translate conversations instantly in your ears. This feature uses Apple Intelligence, the company’s new AI system in iOS 26, to help users communicate easily across different languages.

When you wear AirPods Pro 3 and connect them to an iPhone, the earbuds can listen to someone speaking and translate their words in real time. If both people are using AirPods, each will hear the translation through their earbuds. If only one person has AirPods, the iPhone will show the translated text on screen. It’s a fast and natural way to break down language barriers.

Live Translation is not limited to the new model. It will also be available on AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods (4th Generation) that have Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) and the H2 chip. The first supported languages include English, Spanish, French, German, and Portuguese, with Italian, Japanese, Korean, and Simplified Chinese coming soon.

This update turns AirPods from simple wireless earphones into smart communication tools. It’s especially useful for travelers, students, and professionals who often talk with people from different countries. While the feature may have a slight delay and requires iOS 26 with Apple Intelligence enabled, it’s a major step forward for Apple’s AI-powered ecosystem.

With the AirPods Pro 3, Apple is showing how technology can bring people closer — no matter what language they speak.
