These AirPods are too good for Apple to make

There will be new AirPods later this year, but Apple remains conservative with the product design. In contrast, these “AirPods” with their unique design show much more courage. Too good to be copied from Apple.

It is only a draft, but it has it all. These AirPods look like they were designed by Raymond Loewy – arguably the most famous master of streamlined design – himself. But since he has not been with us for 35 years, there must be another form wizard behind it.

AirPods in Streamline design: So nice, but Apple won’t do it

The Mexican industrial designer is responsible for this extraordinary concept of the Apple headphones Jesus Coronado. The classic shape of the AirPods with the lower stub is retained, but interpreted in the so-called streamline design, which had its origin in the 30s of the last century. The focus is on streamlining, which leads to a reduction in flow resistance. Initially, this also had clear technical advantages, for example in automobiles or steam locomotives.

Such advantages are of course not necessary with the AirPods in Streamline design, the pure aesthetics of such a concept remains – the finest stainless steel in flowing forms that arouse real desires. But that’s where it will stay, because these streamlined AirPods are too good and flashy for Apple to consider. But what will the new AirPods look like in 2021?

AirPods 2021: This is what they really look like

The rumor mill is certain: The AirPods 2021 of the third generation should inherit the design of the AirPods Pro, so short instead of long “stubs”. The AirPods Pro, on the other hand, should therefore do without the “stub” completely. It remains a rounded, rather bean-shaped design as we already know from Samsung, for example.
