According to industry analysts, there is a possibility that Apple is developing a cheaper version of its popular AirPods. The AirPods 2, released in 2019, still carry a price tag close to $200. Apple, which already dominates more than 30% of the wireless earbuds market, seems to be aiming for even greater control with the introduction of lower-priced earbuds. Could this be the rumored AirPods SE? The potential new model would likely include some features from the current model but at a lower cost. This could make it more accessible to those who are on a budget and can’t afford the pricier models. It could also attract new customers who are interested in trying out Apple’s products but don’t want to spend too much money on them. The release date and pricing for any potential new model have yet to be announced by Apple, so it remains unclear when or if these rumors will come true. However, given their track record of success with their current lineup of products, it wouldn’t be surprising if they did decide to launch an affordable version of their popular AirPods soon.
