Apple reportedly to revamp AirPods lineup in 2024

Apple is set to host its October 30 ‘Scary Fast” event soon where it’s expected to release a refreshed set of Macbooks and iMacs packing in the M3 chip.

It was also recently that Apple released an updated AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) with USB-C  when they also released its iPhone 15 line of smartphones.

A new report by Mark Gurman of Bloomberg suggests that Apple has plans to introduce two new 4th Generation Airpods.

With the first being a new entry-level pair of AirPods while the other being the same regular AirPods. Both are set to be unveiled in 2024 and are said to feature updated earbud designs, cases, and audio upgrades.

The new entry-level pair of Airpods is said to have a design similar to the 3rd Gen Airpods and the Airpods Pro while the regular 4th Gen AirPods will have features transferred over from the Airpods Pro such as noise cancellation and speakers on the charging case for better Find My support.

It’s also expected that both the low and high-end pair of 4th Gen AirPods will feature USB-C. Moreover, the report also states that Apple will soon release a follow-up to the AirPods Max headphones now with a USB-C port and new colors in 2024.

The report also indicated that Apple will be phasing out both the 2nd Gen and 3rd Gen Airpods when its successor is announced to possibly bolster its sales.

As for the AirPods Pro, it’s not expected to receive any updates or refreshes in 2024 but rather in 2025.
