Yesterday was a great day as Apple decided to launch the new iPhone SE. A new device that enters the range of "economic" devices and has the objective of recovering the market so that anyone who wants to enter the iOS ecosystem ends up going through the ring of Cupertino services. This is great news as it denotes that Apple continues to work on launching products. Today we just found out about what one of the company's next devices will look like: the headband AirPods ... After the jump we give you more details about these new headphones.
According to the guys at Bloomberg, Apple still wants to launch over-ear headphones, as opposed to AirPods that are in-ear. These new headphones apparently They will have magnetic parts and predictably these will be the pads on which our ears rest. Some pads that in this way could be exchanged and thus have the possibility of using different magnetic pads according to the use that we are going to give it to headphones.
The ear cushions and headband padding magnetically adhere to the frame of the earbuds so that they can be replaced by the user. That approach is similar to some headphones from Master & Dynamic and Bowers & Wilkins, although those models only have magnetic ear pads. Apple's more modular design will allow users to customize their headphones just like they do with the Apple Watch. The design may also mean that the same set of headphones would be convertible from casual use to sports use and vice versa.
As you can see, a new way to keep selling device parts like Apple Watch straps, which are essential for its operation, or the iPhone cases that may be more expendable. Everything so that Apple continues to make cash, but that can benefit us to personalize our headphones. However, do not worry since if this information is true, we will surely see pads manufactured by third parties.
