Apple plans to launch the live translation feature for AirPods in the EU by December.
The feature is compatible with AirPods Pro 3, AirPods 4 with ANC, and AirPods Pro 2 when paired with iPhones running iOS 26 or later.
Initially supporting five languages, the feature now includes Italian, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Japanese, and Korean.

Live Translation, a feature introduced with Apple's AirPods Pro 3, is now supported on AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods 4 with ANC.
This AI-powered feature translates ambient audio in real-time and displays responses on the iPhone screen.
Access to Live Translation on older AirPods models requires an iPhone 15 Pro or newer and iOS 26 installed.

The AirPods Pro 3 introduces advanced features like IP57 dust and water resistance and built-in heart rate sensors for workout tracking.
The Live Translation feature, initially exclusive to the AirPods Pro 3, will become available on the AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods 4 with ANC.
This innovative feature supports real-time speech translation in multiple languages, with plans to expand language support further by year-end.
