Summary
Apple has made beta AirPods firmware available to users running the iOS 27 developer or public beta, extending new features to AirPods Pro 2, AirPods 4, AirPods Pro 3 and AirPods Max 2.
Custom EQ is the headline addition, giving users manual sound tuning instead of relying only on Adaptive EQ; the update also adds a redesigned AirPods interface, an Adaptive mode slider and Siri AI support.
To install it, users must first enroll an iPhone in the iOS 27 beta, then enable AirPods Beta Updates in Settings and leave the headphones charging near the paired phone for about 30 minutes.
The firmware remains a preview release for testers and is slated for general availability in September alongside the full iOS 27 rollout.
