Report hints that ‘HomePod mini,’ ‘AirPods Studio’ could be coming soon — Apple World Today

Bloomberg reports that Apple has stopped selling headphones and wireless speakers in its retail stores from rivals such as Sonos, Bose, and Logitech as the company gears up to launch its own new audio products. Those products apparently include smaller HomePods and the “AirPods Studio” over-the-ear headphones.

The giant has long sold third-party hardware on its website, one of the largest e-commerce operations in the world. All headphones and speakers from Bose, speakers from Logitech’s Ultimate Ears brand and Sonos’s latest smart speaker disappeared from Apple’s online store at the end of last month, according to checks by Bloomberg. What’s more, employees at Apple’s physical retail locations were also instructed to remove the products for sale at stores in recent days, the article adds.
