On the first and second-generation AirPods, Apple uses a needle-shaped soft-pack battery provided by LG Energy Solutions with a battery capacity of 0.093Wh; and on the AirPods Pro launched in 2019, Apple uses a button battery with a battery capacity of approximately Up to 0.19Wh. The latest report claims that AirPods 3 will also use button batteries, which shows that Apple has fully switched to button batteries and will become more popular in the future.
After Apple released AirPods Pro, major manufacturers have followed up with button batteries, and their market share in 2020 will exceed 57%. In contrast, the market share of needle-shaped soft-pack batteries is 18%, which shows that AirPods Pro has surpassed the performance of the first and second-generation AirPods in terms of sales. The Elec latest report pointed out that there is no evidence that the use of button batteries can help Apple save costs.

However, because the handle used by AirPods Pro is smaller, it may be necessary to use button batteries. The report also pointed out that the lite version of AirPods Pro will also use coin-shaped batteries, and it is expected that these batteries will not contain active noise reduction. Although the name has not yet been confirmed, we temporarily named it AirPods 3, and they are expected to arrive later this year.
