We have noticed this in recent weeks: the trend seems to be favorable to the return to favor of wired headphones, as has been provenseveral celebrity photos. It must be said that this solution still benefits from some significant advantages. The first is of course autonomy: rather than only lasting a few hours on a single charge like AirPods, this alternative is powered with the current transmitted via the iPhone socket.
And the second? Obviously, it's about the price. THEtrue wirelessApple's most affordable ones are priced at 149 euros compared to... only 19 euros for the current EarPods! So many benefits which could only improve if the manufacturer chose to offer us a reissue: that's what they came up withonce again Parker Ortolani, this time in collaboration with José Adorno, still for the columns of9to5Mac.
A formatto theAirPods 3
To begin with, we recognize above all here a design closer to theNewly revealed third-generation AirPodsthan other models. The vents are thus wider, while the stem has been shortened. The price has however been revised upwards, since we are talking here of 29 dollars, an amount equivalent to that which you have to spend to buy an AirTag. The connected beacon worth thirty-five euros with us.
Another change, and not the least: the duo presented in this concept is equipped with a braided cable. If Apple were indeed inspired by it, it would not be a first: Thunderbolt accessories for Mac are already entitled to it. Objective: to guarantee on the one hand better resistance than a simple plastic sheathing in the long term and on the other hand to make involuntary tangling more difficult.
The Lightning is still here
The most keen eyes will also have noticed that the connectivity of these EarPods is a proprietary plug, even though it is rumored that Apple could soon abandon this technology in favor of USB-C… or induction charging only . However, we would have to wait until 2023 at the earliest.
Finally, note that Spatial Audio is also included, for immersion in quality music. However, at the moment, few apps are compatible.
