Fancy a new set of wireless headphones? Apple's got just the thing: the Cupertino giant has received approval from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for a pair of wireless headphones. The model is filed under the new FCC ID code A2015 and is listed as "Power Beats Wireless" – so it is highly likely to be the latest in Apple's Beats subsidiary brand.
As we noted back in December, Apple's iOS 13.3 update revealed a "Powerbeats4" product featuring 'Hey Siri' support and Apple's proprietary H-1 chip, so in all likelihood we're now seeing the first visuals of the new Powerbeats.
With Apple’s H1 chip a likely inclusion, the Powerbeats4 will probably also support the “Announce Messages with Siri” feature, which lets Siri read your iPhone messages aloud without the need for unlocking your iPhone.
The Beats Powerbeats3 are currently sold by Apple for £170/$199 but can often be found for quite a bit less via other online retailers. The main difference, of course, is that the Powerbeats3 have a connecting wire between each earpiece, while the Powerbeats Pro are truly wireless.
For now, we wait...
