According to rumors, these mysterious Apple earbuds are exactly the upcoming Beats Studio Buds Plus earphones, which we recently reported that the folks over at 9To5Mac have found mentions of in a pre-release version of iOS 16.4.
According to the code found in iOS 16.4, the Beats Studio Buds Plus will support automatic device switching, Hey, Siri,” and audio sharing. However, 9to5Mac’s sources claim that the new Beats earbuds probably won’t come with an Apple H2 chip on board, despite supporting such functions.
The Beats Studio Buds Plus will also most likely have active noise cancellation and a strong emphasis on bass. As for their design, the rumor mill claims they will look just like their predecessor, the Beats Studio Buds, but they will also be available in a new black color with gold details.
Apple released the Beats Studio Buds in June 2021, and it is possible to decide to announce the Beats Studio Buds Plus this June as well.
