Apple’s suppliers have previously begun shipping BT substrates, which will become part of AirPods 3’s internal components, indicating that the new wireless earbuds are expected to be unveiled in 2021. This means that the product should not be delayed.
In addition, a leaker revealed that AirPods 3 will make the wireless charging box a standard configuration. This means that Apple will not charge customers more money to allow them to use Qi charging pads to charge the earbuds as before.
In a new tweet, dylandkt also stated that AirPods 3 will use different sizes of earplug silicone tips to more naturally fit users’ different ear shapes. After launching two generations of AirPods of the same size and design, Apple finally began to provide options similar to AirPods Pro. This improvement in comfort and sealing is likely to bring more customer groups.
The tipster also said that AirPods 3 will be available with a new design, and we have heard this news countless times. I want to remind you that Apple’s upcoming wireless earbuds will use SiP, a technology similar to AirPods Pro. This technology helps to reduce the amount of space occupied by internal components, which is why it is said that AirPods 3 has a shorter and smaller handle compared to its immediate predecessor.
New Airpods with redesign and new Airpods Pro will release in 2021.
The new Airpods will feature different tip sizes and the wireless charging case will finally be standard and not just an option for the new Airpods.— Dylan (@dylandkt) January 4, 2021
As for AirPods Pro 2, a previous report mentioned that this product is expected to be launched in 2022. Motion sensors are added to the body to increase attention to fitness. However, the latest news from grapevine sources said that AirPods Pro 2 has been postponed, but did not provide a reason. Perhaps Apple intends to postpone them because the product launch time is too close, it may cannibalize AirPods 3 sales.
It is expected that Apple will also make competitive pricing for AirPods 3. Since these products are not expected to have active noise reduction features, you can rest assured that these products will be cheaper than the current generation of AirPods Pro.
