Expected features coming in Apple Airpods
a hearing aid facility
Apple is working on a new hearing test feature that will determine how well a person can hear by playing different tones and sounds. It can be beneficial for people who have hearing problems so that they can consult doctors. Or it could be possible that Apple wants to capture a bigger piece of the pie in a $10 billion a year market and still growing.
Well, it will be interesting to see when and how Apple will come out with the new device.
body temperature measurement
The next-generation AirPods may use the wearer’s ear canal to determine body temperature, just like the Apple Watch. This type of data is expected to be more accurate and precise than wrist temperature. The technology is limited to tracking fertility but Apple aims to expand the feature to make it multi-functional such as determining whether a person has a cold or other illness.
USB-Type C Compatibility
Apple is slowly moving towards USB-Type C charging ports for most of its devices. The iPhone 15 is expected to be the first phone to support USB-C. Last year, the European Union passed a resolution forcing tech companies to provide a common charging port for all devices to take the burden of carrying multiple chargers off the customer’s shoulders.
