There has been ample news on the Apple front lately. We are pretty unsure where it all is going. First, we got to know about the upcoming AirPods Studio, then the AirTags. Then there were leaks that we’d see these devices come out along with the new iPhone 12 series during the October event. Then we got hinted at being delayed until another event being held in November. Now a typical person would believe that they were doing so in order to shift their focus on the iPhone itself but this does not seem to be the case. According to a bunch of reports, Apple has been restricted by the manufacturing conditions that are forcing the company to push back launches. Now, we have certain tweets from Jon Prosser, a good source for all this information and this is what we know now.

Firstly, we talk about the AirTags. Apple’s version of the Tile, these things have been looked forward to for quite some time now. According to recent sources now and Jon, these AirTags from Apple would fae a delay as well. This would be the case till the iPad event or so in the March of 2021 that we “May” see the AirTags properly. Now, coming to the AirPods Studio.

AirPods Studio 🎧
The renders that I shared last month seem to be the luxury variant — made of leather/metal.
I’m being told they’ll retail for…. $599 😳
There will be another sport-like variant made of cheaper materials for $350.
They WILL NOT be at the October 13 event. https://t.co/awunRlGrD4 pic.twitter.com/le2cfmlC9P

The AirPods Studio will, firstly, come in two finished. Just like we see in the Apple Watch, there will be a premium version with leather and metal finishes and there will be a sport variant. Again, like the Apple Watch. The former is said to go for about $599 and the latter, $349. That’s the Apple we know! As for their launch or announcement, Jon says that it WOULD NOT be at the 13th October event.
