Apple was working on adding a new anti-reflective coating to the iPhone 17’s display, but it looks like those plans have been canceled. According to reports, the company faced some problems during testing, making the coating less durable than they hoped. The special layer, which was supposed to reduce screen reflections and fingerprints, didn’t meet Apple’s high-quality standards. Now, the company is exploring better ways to improve display quality in the future.
Meanwhile, Apple’s next-generation AirPods Pro 3 could deliver a feature that fans will appreciate. The new model is expected to come with better ear tips that last longer. Current AirPods Pro ear tips can wear out and need replacement over time, but the upcoming ones could be stronger, meaning users won’t have to replace them as often. This simple change would not only improve comfort but also save users money in the long run.
Apple is rumored to launch the AirPods Pro 3 in 2025, possibly with a new design and improved sound quality. While the iPhone 17 may have missed out on its anti-glare upgrade, the AirPods Pro 3 looks like it will bring a small but meaningful improvement that users will notice and appreciate over time.
