The brand new AirPods Pro were introduced via press release on October 28th of this year. It is now clear that they are more popular than previously expected.
According to a new Bloomberg report, the new AirPods Pro are said to be much more popular than Apple expected. According to insiders, the executives themselves were surprised. Apple does not usually give sales figures, but in this case the news portal was able to find out a specific sales figure thanks to reliable sources. According to this, around 60 million AirPods are expected to be sold in 2019. Last year, it was around 30 million units - according to the source. The unexpectedly high demand is due to the new AirPods Pro. In order to meet this demand, production capacity must be significantly expanded.
