According to Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple will be adding a budget model to its AirPods lineup by late 2024 at the earliest.
Analysts have recently suggested that Apple may develop a lite version of its AirPods to compete against cheaper wireless earbuds.
Kuo took to Twitter on Wednesday night to outline a timeline for the budget earbuds, stating that he believes they’ll begin shipping in the second half of 2024 or the first half of 2025. He stated that they will be priced under $100.
