Apple to Launch Two New AirPods Models This Fall

The upcoming launch will feature significant upgrades, including USB-C charging cases and active noise cancellation for the mid-tier model.

Apple plans to release two new fourth-generation AirPods models in September or October, marking the company's most significant AirPods launch to date.
The new AirPods models will feature a new design, improved fit, and USB-C charging cases, with the mid-tier version also including active noise cancellation.
Production of the new AirPods is set to begin in May, with an expected output of 20 million to 25 million units.
The fourth-generation AirPods will replace the current second and third-generation models, with Apple aiming to boost its presence in the lower end of the market.
Apple is also planning significant AirPods-related software upgrades as part of the iOS 18 rollout this fall, including a hearing aid mode for the AirPods Pro.
