For the first time, the AirPad Pro 2 will support Lossless content

It is rumored that Apple plans to unveil the next generation AirPad Pro this year. A report from Mingchi Ko shows what features these headphones might include. In a report to investors, Minguchi said that Luxher and Gort are the main assemblers of the next-generation AirPad Pro.

Apparently, these headphones will have a completely new design and will also support Lossless content playback. It is interesting to note that none of the current AirPads support this feature.

In general, a typical Apple Music song is encrypted in AAC format at a bit rate of 256 kbps, which is not considered studio quality; But for most users, it ‘s good enough with regular headphones. Using Apple Music Lossless, users can listen to ALAC encrypted songs in 16-bit resolution at 44.1 kHz, also known as CD quality.

The quality of an audio file of CD type is about 1411 kbps and much higher than a normal AAC file in Apple Music. When it comes to Lossless capability, which requires even better equipment such as an external DAC, these numbers can be much higher. The higher the bit rate, the more detail the music; Because the sound has experienced less compression.

In the most ideal scenarios, Bluetooth technologies can only reach speeds of up to 2,000 kbps. In the real world, bandwidth is even less important when you need signal reduction due to interference and distance. For this reason, Lossless will not work with any Bluetooth headset, and this is not limited to Apple Music or Apple headphones.

Nowadays, users need good, wired headphones to experience Lossless music. In other words, none of the Bates wireless iPads and headphones have this capability; So it’s still unclear how Apple can achieve this with the limitations of Bluetooth.

Mingchi Ko also expects high-end AirPads to be equipped with health-oriented capabilities. His previous report showed that the AirPad Pro 2 has motion trackers for fitness programs. In addition, Apple is said to be removing or drastically reducing the stems of the AirPod in the new design language. It seems that the audio chip will also experience a significant improvement.
