Last month, Gurman said these AirPods will likely be priced above the current AirPods Pro 3, which Apple sells for $249. As a result, he said Apple is likely considering using "AirPods Ultra" branding for the camera-equipped AirPods.

At least they’re doing something with it and their AI. Apple Mail app can’t even get badge notifications to sync between devices without opening the app…
The search function in the Mac/iOS Apple Mail app is terrible—I always switch to Gmail when I need to find something. So this is a welcome update for me!
Meanwhile at Apple: crickets…. Followed by the release of the most amazing productivity app ever: Image Playground! Even scientists use it to decorate their publications. But, obviously this sorcery requires the latest hardware.
