Apple plans to release new headphones

Following reports that Apple was considering acquiring Beats, new information has surfaced emphasizing that Apple is planning to launch new headphones this year.

Apple is preparing to take the evolution and creation of its new headphones much further , which is said to require the upcoming iOS 8 for better functionality.

This new version of their headphones, we are informed, will not only change its design, but will also include a change to the connector it has, which fits perfectly with Apple's iPhone.

On the other hand, and reiterating the usefulness of iOS 8 , let's remember that the iOS 7 Music app currently cannot handle high-quality audio files; instead, it is limited to playing 24-bit quality with a 48 kHz sampling rate. This app, at first glance, would not be able to handle the new features of the upcoming headphones.

This is where the highly anticipated iOS 8 comes in , which will apparently introduce significant changes and improvements to its music app. These improvements, along with other apps we won't mention for now, will enhance their usefulness. Consequently, it's clear that Apple will not only introduce new headphones but will also modify its current connector. According to the specified patents, this would allow for the playback of high-definition sound.

However, we believe that all these questions and concerns will be answered at WWDC , an event taking place from June 2nd to June 6th . This will undoubtedly mark a turning point in what Apple plans to release this year.
