A few days ago, we published the first images of how the AirPods Studio could be, the new over-ear headphones that Apple has planned launch in the next few months and they could see the light officially in the presentation of the iPhone 12 (with a bit of luck).
According to the latest leak related to these headphones, the AirPods Studio will be managed by the U1 chip, a chip that among things, will be responsible for determining how they are being used by the user, information that was published a few months ago, but until now we did not know how Apple would manage it.

According to L0vetodream, one of the filters with higher hit rate in recent weeks Unlike John Prosser, Apple's premium headphones will integrate the ultra-wideband U1 chip, a chip that we can also find in the iPhone 11 and the Apple Watch Series 6, but not in the iPad Pro 2020.
In another of the tweets he posted a few hours ago, L0vetodream states that a month ago he claimed that the U1 chip would become an important part of the overall Apple ecosystem intended to be used to determine distance and direction. In the case of AirPods Studio, this chip will automatically check the position of the headphones to detect if we have placed them correctly.
In this way, the need that users have for look at which side corresponds each earphone It will disappear since we will be able to place them in any way in our head, the system being in charge of determining if it has to change the audio channels or keep them as they are. Regarding the price of these devices, it is expected that they reach the market around 350 dollars.
