As Apple prepares for a major AirPods Pro update later this fall, the company has released a new firmware version for several of its earbuds and headphones.
If you own the AirPods Pro 2, AirPods Pro, AirPods Max, AirPods (2 and 3), Beats Fit Pro, or Powerbeats Pro, Apple has a firmware update ready for you.
Although the company only mentions "bug fixes and other improvements," there's always a chance these updates contain more, such as ANC improvements, better sound quality, or something to make phone calls sound better. Interestingly, Apple is updating most of its audio products with a dedicated audio chip, which is why it includes Beats Fit Pro and Powerbeats Pro.

Later this year, AirPods Pro 2 will get the following features:
BGR will let you know if we find anything new with this AirPods firmware update.
