Apple's airpods pro, which was first released in October 2019, seems to be about to usher in the release of the second generation of updated products Recently, according to Apple analyst Guo Mingxuan, airpods Pro 2 is expected to enter mass production in the second half of this year, but he also brings bad news to those who hope apple can change the charging box
At the twitter posting level, Guo Mingxuan predicted that airpods Pro 2 would start mass production in the second half of this year. In addition, he pointed out that Apple will produce POD2 in Vietnam( https://apple.pvxt.net/c/1251234/435400/7639?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.apple.com%2Fcn%2Fmusic%2F ) Dependence on China has decreased.
Earlier, the Wall Street Journal reported over the weekend that Apple had informed some of its suppliers that it hoped to transfer production from China to centers in Vietnam and India.
Guo mingpeng pointed out that Apple's decision to transfer the production of airpods Pro 2 from China to Vietnam can be attributed to the relatively uncomplicated supply chain of the product and the better production environment in Vietnam.
At present, airpods Pro has production and assembly lines in China and Vietnam, but Guo mingpeng seems to think that this year's airpods Pro 2 will continue to be transferred to Vietnam at a higher speed. However, it is expected that in the "new product introduction" stage, Apple will still test and improve the production of airpods Pro 2 in China.
About the charging of airpods Pro 2
In terms of expected functions and changes, Guo Mingyi predicted that the airpods Pro 2 charging box will still use the lightning port for charging, which dashed the hopes of users who can use the usb-c charging port this year.
Earlier this month, Guo Mingxuan said that Apple was currently testing iPhone 15 usb-c charging port. The analyst also predicted that when the iPhone switches to usb-c charging, Apple will also use airpods and other accessories All transition to usb-c.
Unfortunately, however, before the transition from airpods pro to usb-c charging, Apple seems to let consumers wait for a while. If Guo Mingyu's prediction comes true, lightning charging will still be used in this year's airpods Pro update.
Other rumored functions of airpods Pro 2 include new dimensions, added health and fitness tracking functions and support for lossless audio playback. Apple itself even revealed that airpods will one day be able to supplement the health tracking function of Apple watch by providing additional data points.
