9to5Mac has served up some details on Apple’s rumored over-the-ear headphones likely to be dubbed “AirPods Studio” and cost around US$350. Definitely read the complete article, but here are some highlights:
° The earphones will include sensors that can detect whether the headphones are on your head or neck. Neck detection can be used to keep the headset turned on while the music is paused.
° Another sensor will be able to detect left and right ears to automatically route the audio channels, meaning there’ll be no right or wrong side to use AirPods Studio.
° They’ll boast Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency Mode; users will be able to switch between the modes.
° They’ll be mainly targeted to pro users, who will be able to unlock custom equalizer settings.
