Thanks, Sieghard. To my reading, it sounds like you may need to wait until into 2020 before the upgraded version of Air Pods is released. Mostly updated Bluetooth and possibly wireless charing in 2019.
I didn’t see any mention of pricing. Was you comment about price based on current price? I’m guessing newer AirPods will be more expensive, but by how much is the question.

This has been reported on Mac Rumors by Ming-Chi Kuo, the Apple analyst from TF Securities whose "rumors" come true more often than not. I am glad I have held off so far because even if I buy Apple Airpods it sounds like waiting a bit longer may reward you with a newer, more advanced model. Whatever Amazon and Google may come up with sounds like won't come to market until the second half of 2019 so maybe I'll even wait until then to see, after all, given the price of these little guys it is not something you want to buy and then regret a few month later. The sales predictions in that article are astounding.
