The new AirPods have a similar design to the AirPods Pro, which has shorter stalks and squeeze controls.

But they will not have silicone earbud tips or active noise cancelling.

The wireless earbuds have improved speakers for better quality audio, longer battery life and a redesigned case.

The third generation will also support head-tracking for Apple's spatial awareness surround-sound feature.

The third-generation AirPods will cost £169 and will ship on 26 October.

Apple also introduced a cheaper Apple Music plan costing £4.99 a month that can only be controlled via Siri on Apple devices.
