We've heard rumors about the Apple AirPods 3 all year long, and until recently, it seemed like the new genuine wireless earbuds wouldn't come out before at least 2020.
However, a series of leaks in recent months makes it more likely that it is a late 2019 version, and now, the design of the so-called AirPods Pro may have been leaked by ESR, the maker of phone accessories.
Discovered by MacRumors, a listing on the "AirPods Pro Cover" website indicates a larger case than previous AirPod models. It's unclear if ESR has really figured out the dimensions of the new AirPods Pro charging case or if it's just posting this product list as a marketing waterfall.

The rumors multiply
A recent report from the China Economic Daily says that an updated model of AirPods, called the AirPods Pro, in the manner of the iPhone 11 Pro, could be about to be marketed.
According to the China Economic Daily, AirPods Pro will feature active noise cancellation, which is made credible by mentioning the audio parameters "with or without noise cancellation" in the beta code of iOS 13.2. .
They would cost € 260, which works out to around € 200 / € 380, although UK rates are similar to the US, so they will probably cost € 260 in the end.
The beta version of iOS 13.2 also revealed an icon that could indicate a design feature of Apple's upcoming true wireless headphones. Judging from the icon, discovered by 9to5Mac, it appears that the AirPods 3 will be endowed with rubber or silicone tips, which we hope Apple will bring to its recently updated (2019) AirPods.
