Reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo predicted that Apple will roll out new AirPods models over the next couple of years, and that sales will skyrocket in the near future. The 2019 AirPods will feature minor upgrades including wireless charging, while the 2020 AirPods will boast an all-new design.
Famed Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo predicted that an AirPods upgrade is coming next year, to be followed by an entirely new version of the wireless earbuds in the following year.
Earlier this year, a Bloomberg report claimed that Apple is planning to include noise-canceling functionality and water resistance to a new version of the AirPods that will arrive in 2019. It was also said that there remains a possibility that the new AirPods will feature biometric sensors such as a heart rate monitor, but with a price tag that will be higher than the first model’s $159.
Kuo’s prediction for the AirPods version that will be released in 2019 is for a much tamer device.
