Apple has updated one of its online support pages with detailed steps to help initiate a firmware update for any model of AirPods.

Apple on Tuesday released firmware 6F21 for AirPods Pro (1st generation), AirPods 3, AirPods 2, and AirPods Max (Lightning).

A teardown analysis confirms there are no major internal changes between Apple's new USB-C AirPods Max and the previous Lightning model.

AirPods Max are both the most expensive and the most outdated model in Apple's lineup. You shouldn't buy them until they're properly updated.

Apple has announced two new fourth-generation AirPods, along with the new AirPods Pro 2 and updated AirPods Max with USB-C charging and new colors.
