In the past weeks, information has emerged about when the second generation models of AirPods Pro headphones will be released and their general features. Now it has emerged that Apple’s new product may include its latest technologies. Ming-Chi Kuo, a well-known name in the industry for his analysis of Apple devices, said that two different features can be included in the new AirPods Pro headphones. If the description is correct, the new headphones can be expected to be significantly different.
Enhanced sound quality and loud charging case…
Currently, current AirPods models do not have ‘lossless audio compression technology’, which Apple calls Lossless Audio Codec (ALAC). Simply put, thanks to this technology, audio files can be listened to in higher quality. Since all AirPods models developed so far are connected to the phone via Bluetooth, a decrease in the quality of the audio files is inevitable. However, according to the allegations, this new technology may take place in the new generation AirPods Pro headphones.
Apple’s ALAC technology is currently only available on platforms such as Apple Music, iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV 4K and Apple HomePod. According to experts, if the company really plans to use this technology for the AirPods Pro model, it will have to overcome some problems. One of the negative aspects of ALAC technology is that it takes up a lot of space due to high-quality file transfer. In addition, how to implement this technology with Bluetooth remains a matter of discussion.
On the other hand, another claim about AirPods Pro 2 is that the charging case will make a sound. Currently, when the Find My application is used, you can find where the headphones are with the sound emanating from them. It is claimed that this feature will also be added to the charging box of the new headphones. In addition, it is stated that there may be a more ‘fit’ approach in the design of AirPods Pro 2 headphones, which are claimed to be released in the last quarter of 2022.
