I don’t get some of the comments, I think they look nice and clean without obnoxious branding all over it (looking at you Beats).
Got a tip for us?

Alleged AirPods Studio Depicted in Leaked Image and Video Clip

I'll take a possible 3rd gen AirPods. I read, specifically on these forums, a lot of rattling and other issues with the AirPods Pro. These Studio models are going to be super expensive.

totally. i bought my p5's in 2013 and still love them. they sound and look nothing short of amazing. unfortunately they are locked in my office which i haven't been to since february
They should do 3D spacial and Atmos like a champ. I hope the 3D audio will work with the 3D audio chip in the new PS5.
I don't care much how they look. If they've got that new spatial audio and if the sound isolation can be turned off and on, I'm probably in.
Currently I cycle between a set of open-backed headphones (Grado) which I like for situational awareness and sound quality, and which are great for phone calls -- and a set of Bose noise-cancelling phones which sound... okay but have excellent sound isolation when I need to tune everything out.
If I could pare this down to one pair that can auto-switch to my iPhone, Mac or Apple TV, all the better.
Bose sound quality is pretty mediocre but their build quality and noise cancelling are quite good. I think they're more "mass market" than "trash" personally.

Looks as ugly as the Apple Watch, Mac Pro, AirPods, iPhone 4. Hell, it is as ugly as most Apple products. Probably starts at $999 too.

Off to watch the Oculus presentation. VR getting better and better. These would work nice with VR headsets.
How are they going to stay on your head while playing VR? These things look like two sofa couch cushions sitting on your ears.
Why are you the way that you are?
Might as well get used to it because in 2 years every headphone will look like this, wether we like it or not.
USB-C confirmed?
Proportionally it does look more like USB-C than Lightning. I think Apple is finally discontinuing lightning.

I’ll wait until they are officially announced. If it’s not my thing, then maybe I’ll try Surface Headphones. No big deal.
Proportionally the lightning ports on the airpods and airpods pro also look like usb-c so I wouldn't get my hopes up too much.
