Apple has released a firmware update for the new AirPods 3, AirPods 2, AirPods Pro, as well as the AirPods Max. The same update, which has version number 4C165, is available for all AirPods headphones sold by Apple today.
An update that we know very little about
We don’t know what this new firmware version entails, since Apple does not give any details on this subject. What we do know is that AirPods 3 have so far worked in version 4B66, while AirPods Pro have done the same with version 4A402. At first glance, therefore, we can say that the AirPods Pro will receive more news or changes than their newly introduced siblings.
Updating AirPods is automatic, the only thing we can do is check if the update has already been installed. If not, we can facilitate this update, although there is no way to force it. Checking the version of installed firmware requires these steps:
- We put AirPods on our ears.
- We connect the AirPods to our iPhone or iPad.
- We open the app Settings.
- We entered General.
- We played on Information.
- We played on AirPods [Nombre] the AirPods Pro [Nombre].
- We check the firmware number.
Here we have to see if we see version 4C165 appear, or if it will mean that our headphones have already been updated. Otherwise, in case of AirPods or AirPods Pro, we can follow these steps
- We put the AirPods back into the charging case.
- We connect the case to the current to charge it.
- We leave the iPhone nearby.
In the case of AirPods Max, the process is even more automatic, so there’s even less to prioritize updating. We just need to make sure the headphones have enough battery and are close to our iPhone or iPad. As we said before, with what we are waiting for so far, we do not expect big changes, but we will be waiting.
