After a few years in which Apple has not shown a real and tangible advance in its headphones, which are precisely one of its best -selling products, it seems that the company is finally preparing to make an ambitious leap with New airpods that will completely change what we know for wireless headphones.
According to the latest leaks that come from the analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, one of the most reliable in terms of the movements of the Cupertino company, the Airpods with camera They could become a reality in 2026.
The best will not be any camera, but it will be an infrared chamber designed to interact with the environment of forms never seen in headphones. This, added to the promise of some Lighter airpods in 2027it will be the beginning of a new Apple stage in this product line.
New Airpods releases
According to filtered information, New airpods with infrared camera They could be able to understand the user's environment through a computational vision. This would allow these small devices not only to detect where you look, but also to help you, direct your attention or even provide visual information to the iPhone Apple Intelligence system, although the phone is saved in your pocket. In other words, simple headphones could be an extension of your eyes, without the need for smart glasses, a movement that makes a lot of sense if it is considered that Apple has not yet thrown its glasses.
The integration of cameras into the Airpods could also open the door to new experiences with Apple Vision Pro, providing real -time data to improve mixed reality or space navigation in virtual environments. It is not crazy to imagine that these new airpods They work as sensors Auxiliary to improve user monitoring within the Extended Apple reality ecosystem.
But we end here, because we also bring you news for those who prefer headband models. According to Kuo, the Airpods Max They will receive an expected renewal in 2027. Among the main changes is a significant reduction of weight, since the current model, due to its premium and resistant design, has been criticized for its excessive weight, which can be uncomfortable if you use them for many hours. The new version would try to solve this problem and possibly do it with new materials or a complete redesign.
Although the AirPods are improving with each software update, it is true that audio quality still shows some quality loss, and Apple could work in that line to make the next Airpods Max further take advantage of an increasingly demanded connection connection.
In addition, the Airpods Pro They will also be renewed with new health functions, such as heart rate monitoring through the H3 chip, and the long -awaited real -time translation that could come with iOS 19. This function would allow instant conversations between two people who speak different languages, with the AirPods acting as interpreters.
We are facing a turning point for airpods. If Apple manages to combine sound, health, translation, computational vision and augmented reality in a compact and comfortable format, we could be attending the birth of the next great revolution in personal devices. Everything indicates that the airpods of the future are not only heard, they also see, understand and respond.
