The wireless headphones were introduced on September 7, 2016 and have been on sale since December 2016. They are still very popular today.
Now Apple fans around the world have noticed that the popular headphones are suddenly sold out in Europe. Neither collection in various Apple stores nor ordering in the online shop is possible. The phenomenon is spreading across Europe. Interestingly, the white earbuds are still available in the US store. Is this a silent announcement of the successor model?
AirPods 2
The AirPods 2 are set to have more features and be more expensive. These include better noise compensation and moisture protection. The wireless range is also set to be increased. It is also possible to integrate biometric sensors. Earlier rumors predicted that the popular earbuds would not be launched until next year at the earliest. Kuo denied this and named this fall as the launch date.
Apple also announced the wireless charging case for this year. It can be assumed that Apple will not only sell it individually but also in combination with the AirPods 2. So can we expect a new second-generation AirPods to be introduced soon? Observers are still expecting another Apple keynote this year. The many leaks about the upcoming iPad Pro with Face ID confirm this assumption.
Update 9:44 pm:
Availability has now changed. The AirPods are available again as normal. Apparently it was a display error or something similar.
