A new report claims that Apple will release a successor for the AirPods Pro in the first half of 2021. The news comes from unnamed industry sources who specifies Taiwan-based Windbound Corporation as the main supplier of NOR flash memory for the new AirPods Pro as cited by Digitimes.
“Winbond is also expected to be among the NOR flash suppliers for Apple’s next-generation AirPods Pro slated for launch later in the first half of this year, the sources indicated. The Taiwan-based chipmaker will be running its NOR flash production lines at nearly full capacity utilization during the six-month period,” reports DigiTimes.
