  "textContent": "Apple today released new firmware for the AirPods Pro 3. The firmware has a version number of 8B40, up from 8B39.\n\n\n\nThere is no word on what's included in the new firmware, but Apple has a support document with limited notes. Most updates are limited to bug fixes and performance improvements.\n\nTo get the updated firmware, make sure your AirPods Pro are in range of your iPhone, iPad, or Mac and are connected via Bluetooth.\n\nFrom there, connect your Apple device to Wi-Fi, put your AirPods in the Charging Case, and connect the Charging Case to power. Keep the case closed and wait at least 30 minutes for the firmware update to install. After that, check the version number and repeat the process if the update hasn't been installed.\n\nRelated Roundup: AirPods Pro 3\n\nTag: AirPods Pro 3\n\nBuyer's Guide: AirPods Pro (Buy Now)\n\nRelated Forum: AirPods\n\n\nThis article, \"Apple Releases New Firmware for AirPods Pro 3\" first appeared on MacRumors.com\n\nDiscuss this article in our forums\n\n",
