Do You Have Apple Airpods?

Analysts, patent filings and our general gut intuition all point to one thing: Apple AirPods 2 are coming sometime in 2019.

How can we be so sure? The AirPods 2 haven't yet been officially announced by Cook and Co, but thanks to some trademark and Bluetooth SIG filings, we know they're close - and they might be radically different than the AirPods you know and love.

The trademark filings say that the second-gen AirPods will be a health and fitness device, in addition to being a pair of true wireless earbuds. That designation is usually reserved for fitness trackers, so it's interesting that Apple is pursuing it for its earbuds and could integrate nicely with what Apple's doing with the Apple Watch.

Curious what else the second generation of Apple's true wireless earbuds might have in store for us? Read on below. 

Apple AirPods 2 release date and price:

·         When are they out? The latest predictions indicate a 2019 release

·         How much will they cost? That's TBD, but if analysts are right, expect them to be similar to the existing AirPods at $159 / £159 / AU$229 now at free.

We have every reason to believe that AirPods 2 are coming in 2019 but, without any official confirmation from the powers that be, that's just an educated guess.

That said, there are analysts who have been overseas to Apple's fabrication facilities and have said that Apple is just about ready to produce units but couldn't provide an exact date for that to happen.

The best guess we have right now, based on a report from a Barclays analyst, is a late 2019 launch – either at Apple's WWDC event in June, Apple's September 2018 iPhone event or, possibly, at the October 2018 iPad launch.
