If you're planning to splurge on a pair of new AirPods this year, you might want to wait just a little longer.
Reputable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo recently revealed that the giant tech corporation is purportedly working to deliver inexpensive AirPods in the next year or two. According to him, the next-generation AirPods could sport a price tag of $99 or RM469 and will likely be released in 2024 or later.
(4/5)The next-generation AirPods will likely begin mass shipments in 2H24 or 1H25, including more affordable AirPods (with Apple targeting a price of $99) and new AirPods Max, which will be assembled by Luxshare ICT and Hon Teng.

Will the new AirPods project the same let-down? We shall see.
