Gurman: AirPods Pro 2 With Fitness Tracking Coming in 2022, AirPods 3 With 'Pro' Design to Launch Later This Year

Apple is preparing to launch third-generation AirPods (https://www.macrumors.com/guide/airpods/) this year, and plans to release second-generation AirPods Pro (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/airpods-pro/) next year, according to Bloomberg (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-05-28/apple-plans-redesigned-airpods-for-2021-new-airpods-pro-in-2022)'s Mark Gurman.

In line with previous leaks and rumors (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/airpods/#the_future_of_airpods), Gurman explained that Apple is readying third-generation ‌AirPods‌ for launch later this year. The updated earbuds will apparently come with a new case and feature shorter stems, broadly mirroring the design of the current ‌AirPods Pro‌.





Looking to 2022, Gurman said that the second-generation ‌AirPods Pro‌ will feature updated motion sensors and have a focus on fitness tracking (https://www.macrumors.com/2021/05/17/airpods-health-tracking-features/).
The ‌AirPods Pro‌ coming next year will be the first change to that product since October 2019 and will include updated motion sensors with a focus on fitness tracking, the people said, asking not to be named because the plans are private.
Apple has apparently tested a smaller design that eliminates the stems on ‌AirPods Pro‌. This stemless design is expected to debut on new Beats Studio Buds (https://www.macrumors.com/2021/05/26/lebron-james-beats-studio-buds/) that are rumored to launch next month.





Apple purportedly originally planned to release the second-generation ‌AirPods Pro‌ in 2021, but for reasons that are unclear, the launch has been pushed back to 2022.





Moreover, Apple is said to not currently be working on a second-generation of its AirPods Max (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/airpods-max/) over-ear headphones, but it has discussed launching additional color options in the future.<div class="linkback">Related Roundups: AirPods (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/airpods/), AirPods Pro (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/airpods-pro/), AirPods Max (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/airpods-max/)</div><div class="linkback">Tag: bloomberg.com (https://www.macrumors.com/guide/bloomberg-com/)</div><div class="linkback">Buyer's Guide: AirPods (Don't Buy) (https://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#AirPods), AirPods Pro (Neutral) (https://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#AirPods-Pro), AirPods Max (Buy Now) (https://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#AirPods-Max)</div><div class="linkback">Related Forum: AirPods (https://forums.macrumors.com/forums/airpods.216)</div>
