It’s been 2 years since Apple introduced the Airpods Max line headphones that have become a global rage. Since Apple never ceases to thrill its fans, and it’s been three years since the Airpods Max, there is a strong buzz about the impending launch of Airpods Max 2. However, avid Apple fans and followers who understand Apple’s ways strongly believe that the new iteration of Airpods Max is due for launch. Although nobody knows when the advanced Airpods Max will appear, there are enough hints that something is cooking in Apple’s backyards as the company bagged a few patents in the last three years. With your ear to the ground, you can hear the footsteps of the Airpod Max second edition, which will likely arrive in 2024.

Airpods max 2 – Not An Official Name

Being confident that there will be a second edition of Airpods Max, fans and enthusiasts immediately got official confirmation. Still, it named it similarly to its predecessor by adding 2 as a suffix. Whether the official name will be of the same style has yet to be determined. However, the arrival of the second generation of AirPods Max looks real as the clamor grows with each passing day. Industry insiders and Apple Analysts who follow the company closely have hinted throughout 2023 about the possibility of Apple AirPods Max 2. Going by the tradition of Apple coming up with something new in the fall, expecting the release of a second edition of the marvelous headphones is possible.

Having accepted that Apple Airpods Max 2 is on its way, let us quickly look at the newness of the second edition of in-ear headphones.

Upgraded Electronics

The Airpods Max is behind the latest iPhones and AirPods Pro because it doesn’t support Bluetooth 5.3, which offers a more stable connection and consumes less power. Therefore, it’s safe to assume that Apple will address the deficiency in the second edition by equipping it with Bluetooth 5.3. Another expected upgrade in Apple Airpods Max 2 is an improved processor that matches the Airpods Pro H2 chip to ensure better noise cancellation and processing power. Although there is no unanimous view on this from the Apple analysts, the chances are pretty high and seem logical, too. Moreover, not having the best chip in the most expensive hearing devices sounds strange.

Changes in Design

Expecting radical changes in the Apple Airpods Max 2 design will be too much because it can prove counter-productive. Only minor changes might happen, but perhaps the most significant change could be that the new headphones would come with more color options in addition to the sultry green and elegant blue.

A new-look case could be on offer because there has been much criticism about the Airpods Max’s wraparound case. Apple’s patent US-11381892-B1 makes a strong case for an upgraded Smart Case. Moreover, Apple’s efforts to reduce silicon in its products could also trigger the change. The change would improve the functionality as the case should help offer low-power modes for the headphones.

Going a step ahead, the charging case of the high-end AirPods might also include speakers to emit sound for Find My Alert.

USB-C is a Must

Although it seems like a no-brainer, it needs to be mentioned that the Apple Airpods Max 2 will have a USB-C port for charging. Despite iPhones with Lightning connectors still being available and likely to continue for another year or more, it is most likely that Apple will shun it in the new headphones. The 3.5 mm audio cable with a USB-C connection will allow you to enjoy in-flight entertainment by plugging the cable of your headphones into the system. However, the upgrade comes as an accessory, not a device upgrade.

Equipped with the feature of Conversational Awareness, the Airpods Max 2 may sense the voice when users speak. The headphones would then quickly reduce the audio content and background noise volume and facilitate hearing the voice of the people who engage in conversation with you. All the above are optimistic contemplations, and we must wait a few more months to see how many of these are correct.
