What may happen, though, is “a new hearing test feature that will play different tones and sounds to allow the AirPods to determine how well a person can hear.” That’s more in the vein of how an Apple Watch can help alert to possible heart problems, though hearing loss probably isn’t the sort of thing you’d need to keep a fairly constant watch over. Separately, Gurman also says “There’s also engineering work being done on adding sensors to the AirPods so they can determine body temperature via a wearer’s ear canal.” That would require new hardware, of course, so don’t look for that anytime soon. The same goes, too, for whether the OG AirPods would be available with new USB-C cases. Whether it would offer up that case a la carte - or if it’d even be worth “upgrading” - remains to be seen. But you could see Apple saying that new sales will include a case that uses USB-C instead of Lightning. The second-generation AirPods Pro were released in September 2022, so it’s probably too early for completely new hardware.

It points toward a new charging case for AirPods Pro and cautions against the AirPods Pro 3 (which Apple probably will just call “AirPods Pro 3rd Generation”) being announced at the same time as the iPhone 15. But it’s a very obvious shift, and Gurman’s report leaves plenty of questions. Apple, of course, hasn’t announced anything yet, and Gurman’s report is unsourced.

But it looks like the AirPods’ transition to USB-C may finally start this year with at least a new case for the AirPods Pro, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, who writes as much in his weekly newsletter, Power On.
