apple earpods 3rd generation

Third‑generation Apple earbuds are sweat‑ and water‑resistant (IPX4). That makes them suitable for exercise and everyday moisture exposure, but they are not rated for water sports or full submersion.

Fit depends on the model: some third‑generation earbuds use a single‑fit design, while others include redesigned in‑ear tips in multiple sizes to provide a more secure, personalized fit. Check the specific model’s specs to see which option it offers.

Reviewers most commonly praise sound performance (bass and clarity), spatial audio and noise‑cancellation features, and improvements in build quality, fit, and battery life.

Typical single‑charge listening time is up to about 6 hours, and total listening time including the charging case is commonly reported up to about 30 hours. Actual runtime varies by model and usage.

Charging options include wired charging cases that use the device’s built‑in connector and cases that support wireless charging or magnetic‑style contact charging. Available case types vary by model.
