It is not yet clear if Apple is planning to launch yet another generation of AirPods or a successor of AirPods Pro that landed in India at a price of Rs 24,990. AirPods Pro Lite maybe? However, Apple has not confirmed the name of the product, or even a launch date, or even hinted at the launch of a new product. To recall, it **is expected** that this year’s 2020 iPhone lineup might get delayed due to the global pandemic. It is expected that the lineup will include four iPhones this time, out of which the 5.4-inch and two 6.1 inch models are likely to be available in September, whereas the 6.7-inch model is expected to be unveiled in October.
