AirPods 3 rumoured to be announced at Apple event on October 18
Apple is
hosting a virtual event on Monday at 10 am Pacific Time, with rumours widely
suggesting the event will be focused on redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook
Pro models with a faster version of the M1 chip, brighter mini-LED displays,
and more.
As per reports by MacRumors, third-generation AirPods will likely
be announced at the event as well. The new AirPods are rumoured to feature a
similar design as the AirPods Pro, but without Active Noise Cancellation, and
they could have improved sound quality and some other new features.
Reports suggest the third-generation AirPods have already been
manufactured and are ready to launch, which increases the likelihood that they
will be announced during the Apple Event next
week.
Earlier this week, an account on a Chinese social media platform
also claimed that third-generation AirPods will be announced at the Apple Event next
week. Last month, the same account accurately revealed that Apple would
announce the ninth-generation iPad at its September event.
This would be the first update to the standard AirPods since the
second-generation AirPods were released in March 2019. The second-generation
AirPods are priced at USD 159 with a wired charging case and at USD 199 with a
wireless charging case.
An update to the AirPods Pro is not expected until next year.
