The rumor mill just unveiled a few nifty tidbits.
According to Macotakara, Chinese supply chain sources have indicated that a new model of AirPods Pro with a refined charging case may be joined at an April launch by a third-generation iPhone SE.
Apple is thought to be working on new AirPod variants, such as the AirPods Pro Lite and the AirPods 3. While there was an expectation for a product launch during the fall of 2019 at various Apple events, none surfaced. As such, a new report claims that there may be some development left before a new model appears, which could be launched in April.
Per the article, while the report was light on specific details, it did claim the charging case will measure 21mm thick, 46mm tall, and 54mm wide.
If true, this would indicate the charging case will be slightly smaller than the current version. According to Apple’s specifications for the case, it measures 45.2mm (1.78 inches) tall, 21mm (0.85 inches) thick, and 60.6mm (2.39 inches) wide, which would make the new version roughly the same in terms of thickness and height, but not as wide.
Other supply chain rumors include a new iPad mini en route that will feature an 8.4-inch display, Touch ID, Lightning, and a narrower frame.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
