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.— 郭明錤 (Ming-Chi Kuo) (@mingchikuo) January 12, 2023
That cost would be $30 less than what Apple has previously recommended for its most cost-effective AirPods (second generation). In recent months, several retailers, including Amazon, have frequently retailed the second-generation AirPods for $99 each. The suggested retail price for the latest model of AirPods Max headphones is $549.
Apple charges $169 for the third-generation AirPods and $249 for the second-generation AirPods Pro.
