A long time coming.

If you've been looking for a reason to upgrade your AirPods, Apple hasn't really given you any for a while.

Thankfully, Apple could finally be gearing up to introduce new models to its earbud lineup.

Gen 1 sold well because there were not a lot of small, fully wireless, earbuds when those launched. Moreover, unlike other BT headphones at the time, they were low latency and paired reliably.

All in all, the market was different back then and the OG AirPods addressed a combination of user experience issues that the rest of the market wasn’t really addressing.
