AirPods Pro 2 magsafe case

It’s no longer news that AirPods Pro 2 will be coming out sooner or later because a lot of people have been eagerly waiting for the unveiling. But what will the design of the AirPods Pro 2 be like? Would there be any physical changes as well as technological advancements different from early AirPods? According to sources, rumors have it that Apple might not alter the original AirPods Pro’s design, but will change the optical sensor on the underside of each earbud. According to rumors, the newest Pros will include skin-detect sensors similar to those used in the AirPods 3. From an ear-caring perspective, I would like to add that if the new AirPods Pro is actually more rounded, noise-canceling will improve. And that would be a plus.

Possible Features

In terms of features, the AirPods Pro 2 should support MagSafe charging, as Apple has done with the current iPhones and the AirPods Pro. A vast majority of people are also looking for better battery life for AirPods Pro 2, similar to the AirPods 3. Similarly, I believe the next AirPods will include an upgraded chip, which should be more powerful than the one found in the AirPods 3. Because, like the AirPods 2 and AirPods Pro, the AirPods 3 contain an H1 chip.

Hopes are high that the AirPods Pro 2 will have an upgraded H chip, dubbed the H2, or possibly the U1 processor seen in AirTags. If the AirPods Pro 2 uses a U1 chip, they won’t need to support AirTags because they’ll have precision-finding capacity to identify their location in ‘Find My’ and maybe soundtracking without the AirPods case being opened. Because there are obvious speaker holes on the casing, the leaked case shot from MacRumors suggests greater ‘Find My’ or precision-finding functionality as well. There is also a strap loop on the side. With these and other features, it’s possible that Apple will assist us in keeping track of our AirPods Pro 2 in more ways than one.

Motion Detection & Respiratory Rate

Motion detection can be useful in so many ways including fitness tracking. With this feature hopefully coming through for Apple users sooner or later, it would be a game-changer for the AirPods generation. Although nothing is certain, and no news has been heard so far from Apple Inc. regarding the AirPods Pro 2 with motion sensors capable of fitness monitoring. However, rumors and speculations have it that analyst Ming-Chi Kuo is of the notion that the next AirPods will feature unlimited motion and fitness-tracking capabilities.

Let’s move on to respiratory rate

According to a news release from Apple’s Machine Learning Research Center, audio may be utilized to predict respiration rate. It’s not definite that the AirPods Pro 2 will detect respiration rate and contribute that data to the health app, but it’s a possibility, and there haven’t been any fresh rumors on the subject.

Lossless Format

Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo believes the AirPods Pro 2 will support Apple’s Lossless Format. Apple may take a bold new step in its pursuit of lossless audio by developing a new, exclusive wireless streaming technique known as optical audio transmission technology. This might be ready for the AirPods Pro 2 or it could debut with Apple’s MR (Mixed Reality) Headset, codenamed N301.

Performance Enhancements (Spatial Audio Conversation Boost)

Several exciting upgrades to the AirPods experience were announced at Apple’s 2021 WWDC event, including Conversation Boost, which helps drown out ambient sound and enhances the voice of the person you’re talking to, a potentially very useful hearing aid for those with some hearing loss, a new announcement feature with Siri when you get a new message or notification, and ‘Find My’ capabilities for your AirPods.

The new Spatial Audio feature coming to the AirPods is perhaps the most exciting. What exactly is Spatial Audio? Spatial Audio mixes Dolby Atmos and other surround channel signals and uses directional audio filters to make sounds appear to come from realistic angles all around you (front, back, side, and above). The AirPods Pro and AirPods Max enhance the theater experience by detecting your head motions with gyroscope and accelerometer sensors, ensuring that audio placement stays correct even when you swivel your head or reposition your smartphone. Because the AirPods 3 incorporates Spatial Audio and Conversation Boost, one could not be less confident that the AirPods Pro 2 will as well.

Apple AirPods Pro 2 Release Date

AirPods Pro 2 2022

By the end of 2019, the original AirPods Pro had been introduced. Ming-Chi Kuo predicts that the AirPods Pro 2 will go into mass production in the second part of the year. He also mentions that the AirPods Pro 2 would be made in Vietnam, indicating a shift away from Apple’s reliance on China. This follows reports in the Wall Street Journal that Apple has alerted some of its suppliers that it intends to relocate production from China to centers in Vietnam and India.

Previously, Kuo predicted that the AirPods Pro 2 will be released in the fourth quarter of 2022, implying that the device might be released between September and November, based on Apple’s plans to unveil the product alongside new iPhones, iPads, and Macs.

Price of AirPods Pro 2

How much will the AirPods Pro 2 cost? The original AirPods Pro cost $249, and Apple has demonstrated that it is not afraid to charge a premium for high-end headphones such as the AirPods Max, which costs a staggering $549. On this note, it is unlikely that Apple will decrease the pricing point and will instead maintain it at $249. If Apple includes a slew of new capabilities in the upcoming AirPods Pro, the price will almost certainly rise by $50.

Conclusion

The rumored AirPods Pro 2 which is Apple’s next wireless earbuds is said to have a premium design and better noise-canceling capabilities.

Even though these facts aren’t genuinely confirmed, the Apple AirPods Pro 2 have a lot riding on them. The new AirPods Pro 2 has a lot to be excited about from health and fitness sensors to a new form factor to lossless playback all other expectations if reports are accurate.
