Leaked Images Show Third-Gen AirPods with In-Ear Design and ANC Support

Feb. 22, 2021

Thereportcomes from Chinese publication52Audio. It states that although Apple has been a market leader in the TWS headphones category, its share has been declining year-over-year with the entry of new players in the sector. So, to retain its market share and capitalize on theAirPods line, Apple will be allegedly launching the AirPods 3 with an AirPods Pro-like design and support for Active Noice Cancelation (ANC).

Now, as you can see in the image above, the earbuds of the model look pretty similar to the AirPods Pro earbuds. They will, however, have shorter stems and replaceable ear tips. Moreover, the report states that the next-gen AirPod might support ANC, which will be a huge plus point for the device.

In that case, however, Apple might need to include some extra features in the next-genAirPods Pro model(s)to explain the “Pro” tag and the higher price point.

Coming to the charging case of the upcoming AirPods, as per the images, it is similar to the AirPods Pro case but not quite. It has a similar design but the former is a bit compact than the latter.
