Here’s when to expect the next generation of AirPods Max, reportedly featuring a new lighter weight design<div class="feat-image">
</div><p>If you are a fan of Apple’s own-brand over-ear headphones, , you may be wondering when to expect a new generation model. Apple revised the headphones last fall, adding a USB-C port, but the model was otherwise unchanged. Despite costing the most, AirPods Max lack features that are available in even the cheapest AirPods 4, and are driven by the outdated H1 chip. </p>
<p>And if you believe analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, you’ve still got a while to wait before Apple will be ready to release a next-generation model.
In a tweet, Kuo reports that next-generation AirPods Max will not arrive until 2027. </p>
