We have heard in recent weeks that the Cupertino company is currently working on anew helmetor new headphones. Well it could be AirPods Pro Lite, as a new report from theDigitimes, according to sources close to Taiwanese subcontractors.
The revelations mention few details about the project. But we learn, however, that different suppliers are in talks with the Californian company regarding the production of new earbuds.
On the other hand, as our colleagues at MacRumors point out, DigiTimes does not display the best history in terms of Apple prediction. The publication can be correct on the substance, but sometimes misses the mark on the name of the products. So, it could be that we are simply dealing with a 3rd generation of AirPods.

Indeed, it would be surprising to see Apple try to insert a Pro Lite model into the current range, when there is only 50 euros difference between the already existing models. Remember that the AirPods Pro are priced at 279 euros and that the AirPods 2 with wireless case cost 229 euros from Apple.
Also, how to make AirPods Pro “Lite”? Some features of AirPods Pro should be removed. But many of the specificities of the latter are linked to their in-ear format. This is why it seems unlikely to us that Apple will release new in-ear headphones, assuming that the AirPods Pro Lite keep the same format, without noise reduction technology or even without detection of the shape of the earphone. ear.
At this stage we must therefore wait for additional information to find out a little more about this pair of headphones in preparation in the Cupertino laboratories.
