Description

Processor: An upgrade from the H1 chip to an H3 chip (like in future AirPods Pro models) for better performance. Audio: Improved sound quality, potentially lossless audio support to compete with high-end headphones. Noise Cancellation: Enhanced Active Noise Cancellation (ANC). Battery: Longer battery life. Design: Potential minor changes, but the iconic design likely remains. Charging: USB-C port (already present on the 2024 update). Current Situation No Official Announcement: Apple hasn't confirmed an AirPods Max 2. 2024 Update: A USB-C version was released in late 2024, but it's considered a minor refresh, not a true second generation. Prioritization: Analysts suggest Apple is focusing on other AirPods models, potentially delaying a significant AirPods Max 2. When to Expect It Estimates range from late 2026 to 2027, possibly following a new AirPods Pro release.
