Via MacRumors, another analyst this month said Apple was working on lower cost AirPods to better compete with cheaper rivals.   

Kuo didn't offer any more details about the new AirPods Max beyond the possible shipping timeframe. Apple released its high-end AirPods Max in 2020 for$549. 

Apple might ship the AirPods Max with a USB-C port in order to comply with Europe's incoming directive that says all small electronic devices will require a USB-C port. The common USB-C charger will be required for all phones and other smaller devices sold in the EU from October 2024.
