Illustration: The Verge Apple’s plans for AI on the iPhone could bring real-time transcription to its Voice Memos and Notes apps, according to a report from AppleInsider. The new feature is expected to arrive with iOS 18 and will reportedly let you see a running transcription of your audio recordings in either app. While Notes currently doesn’t let you record audio, a separate rumor from AppleInsider suggests Apple plans on adding this capability in iOS 18 as well. Audio transcription in either app sounds especially handy for students or journalists, who can save time transcribing a lengthy lecture or interview. It should also be helpful for anyone who just wants to take a quick look at their Voice Memos without having to listen to their recordings. As for... Continue reading…

You can check out all the other discounts in our guide on the best AirPods deals of the month. There are some great options in there, but too many people forget about Apple's other headphones brand.

I'll still recap some of the highlights for you, though. Beats Fit Pro are awesome earphones with great battery life and deep bass. Image source: Christian de Looper for BGR Beats Fit Pro earbuds utilize Apple's H1 headphones chip, just like AirPods Pro. They also have active noise cancelling tech and "Hey Siri" support like Apple's flagship AirPods Pro. Beats Fit Pro have a more compact design without a stem, however. They also have an MSRP that's $50 less than AirPods Pro. The Fit Pro model from Beats sits in the same price range as AirPods 3, but the Beats model is so much better. You get active noise cancelling tech, which is missing from Apple's AirPods 3. Plus, you get better sound quality and deeper bass from the Beats model. While they're discounted, you can pick up a pair of Beats Fit Pro earbuds for less than the retail prices of AirPods Pro and even AirPods 3.

That's another big advantage that Beats Fit Pro have over AirPods Pro and AirPods 3, which both only come in white. Apple's Beats Studio Buds also have a $50 discount, dropping them to $99.95. Image source: Apple Inc. In addition to that deal, there's also a big discount available on the less expensive Beats Studio Buds. Studio Buds are similar to Beats Fit Pro, but they don't have the same quality active noise cancelling or little ear hooks for a more secure fit. Some people find that the ear hooks on Beats Fit Pro keep them from moving around during runs and workouts. With 24 hours of battery life between the earbuds and the included charging case, Beats Studio Buds are a great value at $150. Today, however, you can pick up a pair for just $79.95 on sale.
