At Apple's new product launch held at 2:00 on September 8, 2022 Japan time, when the second generation of AirPods Pro, a canal-type wireless earphone with noise canceling function, was announced, as an Apple-related leaker Bloomberg reporter Mark Garman reports. In addition, the CAD data of this 2nd generation AirPods Pro has also been leaked.

According to Garman, the 2nd generation AirPods Pro may be updated from the Apple H1 processor installed in the 1st generation AirPods Pro released in October 2019. It also mentions the possibility of a higher quality sound experience with the Apple Lossless Audio Codec instead of the traditional Apple AAC Bluetooth codec, or the LC3 codec with Bluetooth 5.2 support. In addition, Garman says that the shape of the earphone may also be a design with horns like the Beats Fit Pro .

Garman expects that the case of the second-generation model will have a built-in speaker, unlike the first-generation model. AirPods Pro is compatible with Apple's Find Me, allowing you to look up locations via iCloud. However, unlike iPhones and iPads, the 1st generation AirPods Pro had the problem that it was not possible to use the ``sound and notify whereabouts'' function when the earphones were put in the case. Mr. Garman says that the speaker is installed in the case of the second generation model so that this 'search' can make a sound and notify the location.

Andrew O'Hara, a reporter for Apple-related news media AppleInsider, said that he got the CAD data for the case of the 2nd generation AirPods Pro and published it on Twitter. Looking at the published CAD data image, there are holes on the left and right of the Lightning port at the bottom center of the case. Based on Mr. Garman's leak, we can expect this hole to be the speaker grill.



There is also a notch on the side of the case, which is said to be the 'strap hole' that Garman leaked in 2021 .

Apple-related news site MacRumors points out that the only hole on the other side of the three holes may be a microphone, and it may be for the ' live listening ' function that can be used when listening in a noisy place. I expect.
