Apple AirPods

A patent application filed by Apple has just surfaced, showing what seems to be a device that combines both Apple's AirPods and their classic iPod or iPod Nano design. The diagrams also show that the device serves as a case for Apple AirPods themselves. This looks to be another budding innovation from Apple but it is still in a form of a patent application so it will take a while for this "iPod-AirPod" combo to become reality (if at all). We do, however, applaud Apple for continuing to innovate especially in the now-very saturated true wireless earphone market. Along with the unveiling of its latest MacBook Pro additions, Apple has also introduced its AirPods 3 with a new design and equipped with spatial audio, better battery life, and Adaptive EQ. The third generation of Apple AirPods features a new, wide design similar to its AirPods Pro sibling. The earbuds are equipped with Apple's custom high-excursion drivers, H1 headphone chip, and support in-ear sensors such as the skin-detect and force sensors. Apple also boasts that five minutes of charge can provide an hour of listening time.
