Apple has also released a new firmware update for the AirPods 2, AirPods 3, AirPods Pro, and AirPods Ma x. For all, we pass to the 4C165G version. Second-generation AirPods and AirPods Max‌ previously had the 4A400 version, AirPods Pro‌ the 4A402 and ‌AirPods 3‌ the 4B66.

As usual, Apple does not offer information on what is included in the firmware updates of all accessories, both MagSafe and AirPods‌, so it is not known what improvements or bug fixes have been made. To date, moreover, it is not even known whether there is a precise way to update the firmware of accessories that are generally installed over the air when they are connected to an iPhone.

As for AirPods, placing them in the case, connecting “to a power source, and pairing” to an iPhone or iPad should force the update after a short period of time. It is possible to check the firmware version of the accessories by connecting them to the iPhone and going to the General menu in the Settings.
