As Apple's "It's Glowtime" event approaches, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports that the AirPods Max will likely receive an update, contrary to earlier speculation. The refreshed version is expected to feature improved active noise cancellation and new adaptive audio capabilities, offering a more dynamic and immersive listening experience.
Additionally, the AirPods Max will make the switch from the Lightning port to USB-C, aligning with Apple’s broader move toward a universal charging standard across its devices. While the overall design is expected to remain the same, there may be new color options to provide users with more personalization choices.
These updates suggest Apple is focusing on refining the AirPods Max’s performance rather than overhauling its design, ensuring the premium headphones stay competitive in the high-end audio market.
