There have been quite a few leaks
regarding an over-the-ear premium headphone from Apple recently. New detail
have now surfaced for the device, apparently called the “AirPods Studio”,
including the specifications of the headphone and the various features it will
offer.
There are two pretty cool features that
are rumoured to be on the device. The first one includes a sensor that will not
only be used to detect if the headphones are worn on the ear and automatically
play/pause music, but it can also detect if the headphones are worn around the
neck.
The second sensor system will be present
on the ear cups to detect which side is the ear cups worn on. That is, the ear
cups will know if they are placed on the right or left ear and automatically
route the stereo sound source to the correct ear cup. With this, users can
eliminate the need to fumble around with their headphones to wear it the right
way.
Other features that are expected to arrive
with the headphone include Noise Cancellation and Transparency Mode, similar to
those found on the AirPods Pro. Along with this, when pairing with Mac or iOS
device, users will be able to access custom equaliser settings for the AirPods
Studio.
There will likely be two variations
regarding the materials which include leather fabrics and the other having some
lighter materials. There is no release date mentioned for now and price is
rumoured to be US$ 349.
