Premium accessory
Apple unlikely to offer AirPods Pro with iPhone 12 series
-
To note, Apple has recently launched AirPods Pro model for Rs. 24,990, but we don't expect it to ship for free with the 2020 iPhones.
They have received a great response from buyers, and Apple would like to reap some profits by selling them as individual units rather than offering them for free.
However, the regular AirPods could come bundled with the 2020 iPhones.
