Over-Ear “AirPods”
There are also a lot of signs that Apple is working on over-ear “AirPods”, a version of AirPods designed with high-end audio in mind, perhaps even sound-editing tasks, (with a very high price to match). We know Apple’s going to release these new headphones soon, but we’re not sure exactly when. A surprise fall announcement would be very timely, though –
Apple has made a lot of profit off of its AirPods, and will be anxious to expand this part of its business with new products that will create more buzz. If these headphones are marketed to professionals and sound editors, it also makes sense to release them to complement the new MacBook Pros and Mac Pro.
