Apple's flagship noise-canceling earbuds are due for an upgrade. Rumors suggest they'll arrive later this year. Here's everything I know about them.

One rumor also suggests that the controls on the AirPods Pro 3 might change. Instead of capacitive controls, they might be operable when you’re wearing gloves. They might be moving to more conventional swipes and taps, as opposed to the squeezing needed on the older models.

Here’s the ultimate sign that it’s time to step up your audio game: The latest Apple AirPods 4 are on sale at Amazon, Target and Walmart. Grab them without active noise canceling for a drool-worthy $99.
