My Airpods 2 Prediction

[dad0118]

In my mind, only reason for Apple to release next gen Airpods this soon is for you to be able to wirelessly charge the case, to go along with the new iPhones.

Guess we’ll see soon!

I'd like to see more control over my music to justify the spend. Perhaps left ear Siri, right ear music controls

I’m fairly sure this was mentioned in one of the leaks as a feature, but hopefully as a firmware update for all Airpods. I’ve only just managed to get my hands on some so I’m hoping that the update is just to help Apple produce more of these amazing devices.

This actually could make sense. It depends also the design of This charging mat/dock as well. Although, Lightning would be my preferred method.

Did Apple announce the new Airpods that be charged wirelessly?

Just the case, no change to the actual AirPods

Nice work.

I'm glad that's the only update though (+ the external relocation of the LED), & NOT more colours nor Bluetooth 5.0, or else I'd be tempted to sell my whites & go for black.

Anyone know when the newer AirPods will be available?

I think it's just a stand alone case you can purchase. Doesn't ship with the AirPods as a set.
In terms of when the case will be available, no one knows sadly...might be even 2018 since that's when the AirPower ships.

OK. If it's just a case then there is no reason for me to wait.

That was my thinking too - picked up a pair today. Really like them so far - they feel they might fall out, but the don't!
