A popular Apple device collector has posted images of a prototype of Apple AirPods, as well as an Apple 29W Charger. The Cupertino-based tech behemoth is still mum on its plan to launch transparent AirPods. However, a report from 9To5 suggests that Apple is highly unlikely to release AirPods with a translucent design. However, the translucent design gives us a glimpse of the AirPods’ internal mechanism.
It is worth mentioning here that translucent cases are usually used for product prototyping. This transparent design enables engineers to get a clearer view of the product. The AirPods and AirPods Pro currently come only in white color options. Interestingly, the company has been paying no heed to requests for releasing its truly wireless earbuds in other color options. However, the Apple-owned Beats brand offer earbuds, such as the Beats Fit Pro, in multiple color options. Also, the Nothing ear (1) are the only translucent earbuds currently available in the market.
Apple AirPods & Apple 29W Charger Translucent Prototypes
Noted Apple device collector Giulio Zompetti took to his Twitter account on Tuesday to share images of transparent prototypes of two Apple devices. These include Apple AirPods, as well as Apple 29W Charger (Power Adapter). It is unclear whether the Apple AirPods shown in the image are first-generation or second-generation. However, the images show that the earbuds are housed in a transparent plastic case. Even the stem part is transparent.
