Apple released an important firmware update for the new AirPods Pro this evening.
The new firmware update is called 2B588 - however, the update description does not specifically say what the update is intended for. However, it is intended to improve connectivity and fix errors. Since some users have complained about connection problems, it can be assumed that the update is intended to fix exactly these. The AirPods Pro are automatically updated in the background as soon as they are connected to an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. Since the update has only just been released, it may take some time before all AirPods Pro users can access it - so patience is requested here. If you want to check the current firmware of your plugs yourself, you can do so as follows.
Connect your AirPods Pro to an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. Now open Settings and navigate to the "About" section. Further down, you'll find the "AirPods Pro" menu item. If the firmware version is 2B584, you'll have to wait a bit longer, as there's no way to force the update. (Photo by hadrian / Bigstockphoto)
