Apple's AirPods Lineup to Get These Updates in 2024

A bunch of products designed in 2015. That's Apple today.

More or less. But what they’ve done with their silicon over the past several years has been pretty incredible.

My request for the next generation of Airpods Pro is much better sound quality please. Their integration with Apple devices is really good, and the fit is comfortable, but I can't use mine for listening to music. Just voice, radio and low quality video like TikTok. There is huge scope for improvement

Mine sound great. I also tried them out against the Sonos Ace and the Bose QC Ultra and they blew them out of the water.

The problem is that hearing is subjective. What sounds good to you might not sound good to someone else. In my opinion, my Shure SE-846 are the best IEM’s on the market but they are mainly cabled unless I use them with a BT DAC (balanced) and not as easily integrated as the AirPods Pro. It is what it is.

I enjoy my AirPods Pro 2, but with the amount of use it gets, I should be good for 5 more years, if the batteries hold up.

Apple need to introduce an AirPod for the ears that AirPods don’t fit. There are lots of them. A small solution.

This please; more pod fit choices would be awesome. I love the AirPods Pro but if I move ten feet they fall out. The old originally free wired iPhone pods fit me well.

Count me in on hoping that they get USB-C, the H2 chip (or even H3 if it is ready), some kind of basic water resistance/a fix for the condensation issue, and a physical on/off switch. I also hope the silver/white color stays around as it’s such a classic.

low latency is a must for all audio creators and many more.
at the moment, i use the one and only low latency wireless headphone from AIAIAI from Denmark (yes tripple AI 😜). They are great, the only downside is you have to use a transmitter box on the mac / ipad / iphone side. an apple solution would be without any box for sure.
bluetooth is not the way to go, its more on the wifi side because of speed, dynamic range, resolution, sound quality. there are wifi standards like „Wisi“ which are more common in speakers and monitors. i dont know if Wisi is only a protocol/software thing or if it needs additional hardware/transmitter/etc

I use my Max's wirelessly, most times, if not all times nowadays with Logic Pro X. Honestly the tech, including bluetooth, has come far in terms of convenience - you can do pretty much anything wirelessly (and if you're going to do something professional, you do the last touch-ups with a proper setup). Can't wait to test the new APM 2 once they get released 😎.
