New Images of Rumored AirPods Pro Charging Case [Updated]

New images of the rumored AirPods Pro appeared on SlashLeaks this evening. The new images don't reveal anything new, but do show what appears to be an assembled AirPods Pro charging case in higher quality images than have previously leaked.

Previously leaked images were of lower quality showing the plastic enclosures of the upcoming AirPods. The original leaks were initially dismissed until icons matching the design were found a recent iOS 13.2 Beta release.

Multiple reports have suggested that the new higher end AirPods could be launching imminently. These new AirPods are expected to have noise canceling technology as well as a higher price tag than the current AirPods. Some retailers have even started selling cases for the new design.

Update: The Weibo account these images originated from are reported to claim these are fake/knockoffs of the new AirPods, but regardless, the design is still believed to be representative.

I don’t believe this. Photos are too high quality to be a leak.

It is too late since there is no special event for Oct. Which means no new products for this year.
Mac Pro is still promised for this fall.

The events have historically been in October, but an early November event isn't entirely out of the question. The products should still be available in time for the holiday shopping season.
