Apple AirPods Pro 2 New Firmware Update
As per the latest news story by Apple Insider, the AirPods Pro 2 firmware update is now on its way to its users.
It is worth noting that the latest update is only available to the all-new second-generation AirPods Pro. It means that it does not support other Apple wireless earbuds, such as the first-generation AirPods Pro and the non-Pro AirPods.
On top of that, Apple Insider highlights in its report that unlike other updates, the iPhone maker does not provide any release notes for AirPods firmware releases.
So it is difficult to really know what changes Apple has rolled out to its wireless earbuds. It is unlike its other software updates for iOS and macOS, wherein it provides a full list of improvements and other changes.
