Apple AirPods 2 might come in black variant with 15 minutes wireless fast charging

As with any Apple product release, there have been many rumors surrounding the companies latest product launch, the AirPods 2.

It is also suggested that due to this fast-paced charging, the case will be a lot bigger in size, and heavier in weight, which is a sacrifice AirPod enthusiasts will have to make.

For those looking to only upgrade their case, don’t be alarmed. The change in the design of the case will not affect its compatibility with that of the first generation AirPods. However, the case will be a lot different visually, from its predecessor, according to rumors the case will be bigger in size in one of its directions.

Additionally, Weinbach suggests that the AirPods 2 will come in an all-new color variant, matte black. It is said that it will be similar to the matte-finish that was used on the Apple Pencil.
