The next generation of Apple (NASDAQ:)’s AirPods Max is set to arrive in late 2024, featuring a USB-C port to align with European regulations and create a more uniform charging experience across Apple products. The new AirPods Max 2 will come with a USB-C charging cable and an audio cable for wired listening options. This update comes as Apple moves towards compliance with global standards for device charging.
The AirPods Max 2 is expected to offer Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity, which promises improved wireless performance and potentially better battery life, though Apple has not confirmed the inclusion of LE Audio support. Alongside technical upgrades, consumers can anticipate new color choices, adding a touch of personalization to the high-end headphones.
One of the most anticipated features is the possible integration of the U2 Ultra Wideband processor. This technology would enhance location tracking through the Find My app’s Precision Finding feature, which is already available in recent Apple devices like the iPhone 15 series and updated Apple Watches. If included, this would be a significant step up from the current AirPods Max model’s basic tracking capabilities.
