In the new issue of Power On's weekly news digest, authoritative insider and Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman has revealed not only interesting technical details about the first foldable iPhone, but also about Apple's plans to update its own line of headphones.

Here's What We Know

Gurman is sure that Apple will not release a new model of the full-size AirPods Max headset in 2025. According to him, these headphones are in an unusual commercial position: they are too popular for the corporation to curtail their production, but not enough in demand for the manufacturer to be concerned about a new version. Therefore, their current model won't get a successor for at least another year.

As for TWS-headphones AirPods Pro, the new model will be released this autumn, and its main feature will be the ability to track the user's heart rate - so far Apple has implemented such technology only in Powerbeats Pro 2.

Recall, earlier other insiders claimed that AirPods Pro 3 will be released in 2026.
