At the end of the year 2020, Apple launched its first totally wireless headsets on the market, which would come out under the seal of the AirPods. These wireless headphones, in addition to promising a unique and exclusive sound, as well as their price, were presented with a modular design that allowed the headband and even the pads to be exchanged, in addition to the integration of a new element that came directly from the Apple Watch, a digital crown that was specially designed to raise and lower the volume or stop and activate playback. Well now, two years later, it seems that we will have a renewal of these headband headphones from Apple.
It would be the AirPods Max 2, very comfortable helmets similar to the first version, only with some changes that would improve the original Apple product. Of course, it seems that the ‘premium’ air of the AirPods Max will be maintained.
The new generation of AirPods Max
The middle ‘patentlyapple‘ is precisely the one who has raised all suspicions about this new product of the brand of the bitten apple. They have published a series of blueprints detailing some changes to the AirPods Maxwhich makes us suppose that a new generation is about to arrive.
One of these changes, the most important, is the arrival of touch surfaces in the headphones to control some of the main functions of the AirPods Max, a function that we can already see in both the AirPods Pro and the third generation AirPods. Of course, it seems that everything we could do on the surface has not been specified, which would be announced with the arrival of these new headphones. What we can see described are some features that can only be used thanks to the digital crown. This means that headband headphones will be able to detect the types of pulsations.
Although this is not exclusive to Apple, we do see it present in many of its devices, such as the trackpad of the MacBook, which allows us to make several options depending on the movement we make with our fingers and the keystrokes.
When will it hit the market?
As for its arrival on the market, there is still no news about it since there is no official news of the launch, simply this sketch that gives us an idea of what awaits us. Still, it is possible that we will be surprised and see it in the market in the third quarter of the year. Of course, being a ‘premier’ product, the price will be much higher than the classic AirPods Pro, exceeding 600 euros.
Is it really worth investing in these headphones? The truth is that they are intended for a particular and exclusive use, hence their price and not so much for its characteristics since we can find the same quality in other headband headphones of the brand and even in options that are outside the Apple brand.
