      Apple Updates Firmware for AirPods Pro and Second-Generation AirPods

   Josh Centers

   Apple has quietly [1]updated the firmware in the AirPods Pro and
   second-generation AirPods to version 3E751. The firmware was last
   updated in September 2020. Apple doesn't offer release notes for
   AirPods firmware, so we hope this addresses [2]sound quality issues
   owners have reported, such as crackling and declining sound quality
   over time.

   To check your firmware version, connect your AirPods to an iPhone or
   iPad and go to Settings > General > About > AirPods. Reportedly, you
   can force a firmware update by putting the AirPods in their case,
   connecting the case to a power source, and then pairing the AirPods to
   an iPhone or iPad.
