Images: Apple Pencil 3 and AirPods 3 for the April 20 keynote?

An Asian informant named UnclePan on the Chinese social network Weibo has just shared an image of what looks like apair of AirPods never seen beforepreviously. In fact, we see a design rather similar to that of the second generation currently on the market. The difference is that the case is much wider, like that of the Pro version. Except here, no in-ear tips.

In addition, the black grille installed on the side of the earcups also does not have the same shape as on products that are already available in stores. It indeed seems wider than that of the AirPods Pro and longer than that of the AirPods 2. It is difficult to verify the authenticity of these images, but this is not the first time that “AirPods 3” have been talked about . Despite everything, even their name still remains in the order ofsupposition. Especially sinceMing-Chi Kuo assures for his part that we will have to wait longer to benefit from these accessories.

Renew the pen

In addition to wireless headphones, UnclePan - who has already been right before - believes that the Apple Pencil would also be entitled to athird edition. As a reminder, the last date “already” is 2018, andrumors about a black version already surfaced several months ago. It is therefore entirely plausible that an additional version is on the way from the manufacturer. Especially since the photo below, which suggests a shiny rather than matte color, was published in March.

We undoubtedly recognize the body of the gadget but also its detachable tip, which could also be improved with the arrival of aFifth generation iPad Proequipped with a mini LED screen. Probably one of the most anticipated features isthat of a pipette “in real life”.

See you this Tuesday

The next Apple keynote will be held next week, more precisely onTuesday April 20 at 7 p.m.for residents of France. We also expect an iMac with an M1 processor and AirTags key fobs, although these are also pure hypotheses at the moment.
