Apple's Over-Ear Headphones May Be Called 'AirPods Studio' and Cost $349

Apple's rumored high-end over-ear headphones (https://www.macrumors.com/guide/apple-over-ear-headphones/) may be called "AirPods Studio" and retail for $349, according to Jon Prosser (https://twitter.com/jon_prosser/status/1259097894025662464) of YouTube channel Front Page Tech.

In keeping with the successful AirPods brand, the rumored "Studio" over-ear headphones would significantly diversify Apple's AirPods lineup, which last added the in-ear AirPods Pro in October 2019. The supposed price of $349 would place "AirPods Studio" as a direct competitor to high-end noise-canceling over-ear headphones from Bose and Sony.

Prosser has previously accurately leaked the April 15 launch date of the new iPhone SE (https://www.macrumors.com/2020/04/15/new-iphone-se-399-pricing/) and, most recently, the May 4 launch date of the refreshed 13-inch MacBook Pro (https://www.macrumors.com/2020/05/04/13-inch-macbook-pro-refresh-imminent-rumor/).





Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo expects Apple's over-hear headphones to enter mass production in mid-2020 (https://www.macrumors.com/2020/04/23/kuo-airpods-third-gen-first-half-2020/), which may suggest a fall 2020 launch.<div class="linkback">Related Roundup: AirPods 2 (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/airpods/)</div><div class="linkback">Tags: Apple over-ear headphones (https://www.macrumors.com/guide/apple-over-ear-headphones/), Jon Prosser (https://www.macrumors.com/guide/jon-prosser/)</div><div class="linkback">Buyer's Guide: AirPods (Neutral) (https://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#AirPods)</div>
