hello. This is Technologytodaynow. In our previous article, you might expect that AirPods will come in two models, and recently, according to Bloomburg reporter Mark Gurman, AirPods 4 are expected to come in two models this year. According to Mark Gurman, this AirPod 4 model is divided into entry-level and mid-range models, and we will learn more about each feature.
AirPods 4 available in two models
AirPods 4, the mid-range model
The AirPods 4 is expected to be the mid-range successor to the AirPods 3. The biggest change compared to its predecessor is that it will feature a USB-C type charging port instead of a Lightning charging port. This change is expected as Apple has been introducing USB-C ports to more of its products.
AirPods 4 with Noise Cancelation
In addition, the AirPods 4 will have a new active noise cancellation feature. Previously only offered on professional models, the feature is now available on mid-range models. Influenced by the Pro series in terms of design, a short stem will be introduced, with significant improvements in fit and audio quality and featuring a redesigned design. In addition, the case is said to have a built-in speaker that allows for sound playback when using the Find My feature. The AirPods 4 are expected to cost around $149.
AirPods Lite, the entry-level model
Another notable product this year is the AirPods Lite. This model is the entry-level model, and is expected to be priced around $99. This is the first sub-$100 model since the launch of the AirPods series, and is sure to be a big draw for many. The AirPods Lite will not feature noise canceling, but will support the Find My feature. It will also include a case that supports USB-C charging, just like the AirPods 4.
Apple spatial sound support
The AirPods Lite is one of the more notable products of the year. Its most notable feature is its price, which will be around $99. This makes it the cheapest model in the Airpods series, which attracts a lot of attention.
AirPods Pro 3 expected to launch next year
Finally, if you’ve been waiting for the AirPods Pro 3, we’ve got some bad news. The AirPods Pro 3 will not be released this year, and is expected to be released next year at the earliest. So if you’ve been considering purchasing the AirPods Pro lineup, the AirPods 4 may be the best option for you. Also, if you own multiple Apple devices and haven’t tried AirPods yet, the AirPods Lite might be a good place to start.
