Analyst: AirPods 3 likely coming at Apple’s October 18th event

The third-generation AirPods have already been manufactured and are ready to launch, according to Wedbush’s supply chain checks, which increases the likelihood that they will be announced during the Apple Event next week.

Earlier this week, an account on Chinese social media platform Weibo known as @PandaIsBaldalso claimed that third-generation AirPods will be announced at the Apple Event next week. Last month, the same account accurately revealed that Apple would announce the ninth-generation iPad at its September event.

This would be the first update to the standard AirPods since the second-generation AirPods were released in March 2019.
