With my gym being closed currently im thinking of picking up some AirPods for when I go out for a run. I have some sennheiser wired momentums for the treadmill and my XR I put on the front. Running with that brick in my pocket seems a nightmare along with the wires so im going to put songs on my Apple Watch and do that.

However there are strong rumours apple is about to refresh the AirPods with the pro design without the transparency mode. Would you buy some now or wait it out a bit? I was hoping they might of released something this week.

Well it is hard to say. We do not know for sure what or when Apple will release something. And then it is a big question how production might have been affected by covid-19.

all in all, if you really need a pair get one. Otherwise wait.
You could also try your luck and see if you can get a pair of the pro’s. They are amazing at a gym and when you go for a run.
Just bare aware of your surroundings, even when ANC is off

I’d probably just get a pair of Pro models now and enjoy them.
