The 2nd generation AirPods, 3rd generation AirPods, AirPods Pro, and AirPods Max have all received a firmware update.
As reported by MacRumors, Apple has released a new firmware update for the full range of the company's earbuds and over the ear headphones. The full lineup is now running firmware version 4C165.
Apple today released a new 4C165 firmware update for the AirPods 2, AirPods 3, AirPods Pro, and AirPods Max. The second-generation AirPods and AirPods Max were previously running firmware version 4A400. The AirPods Pro previously had 4A402 firmware available, and AirPods 3 were running firmware version 4B66.
Apple does not tell anyone exactly what the purpose of a firmware update is. While they typically do not bring any new user features to the AirPods lineup, they usually bring some performance improvements and bug fixes.
If you are trying to manually update the firmware in your AirPods, you don't have a surefire way to do so. Apple updates AirPods firmware in the background, so there is no way to tap a button and manually initiate the update. However, the update typically occurs when your AirPods and iPhone are charging together, so you try to do that to potentially initiate the update.
