CTOnews.com8 25 news, as the biggest update in the Bluetooth audio industry in nearly a decade, the LE Audio standard has many advantages. Apple's AirPods Pro 2 may support the LE Audio standard, according to a certification document submitted by Apple to the Bluetooth Technology Alliance (Bluetooth Special Interest Group, or SIG) earlier this month.

The document submitted by Apple to the Bluetooth Technology Alliance mentions the Bluetooth 5.3 host subsystem, which is most likely in preparation for Apple's future products, MacRumors reported today. In addition, the file should actually refer to Bluetooth 5.2, because the Bluetooth version listed by Apple in the Bluetooth Technology Alliance database is often one version higher than the final version supported by the device.

For example, Beats Studio Buds that actually supports Bluetooth 5.2 appears as Bluetooth 5.3 in the authentication file, and many iPhone and iPad products that only support Bluetooth 5.0 are listed as Bluetooth 5.1. At present, it is not clear why Apple's Bluetooth version in the database is one version higher than it actually is, but despite the chaotic certified version, Apple's adoption of the Bluetooth 5.2 standard will be very beneficial to Apple AirPods Pro 2.

Bluetooth 5.2 has many updates, such as support for the LE Audio standard. The LE Audio standard will improve audio quality and extend battery life, and the LE Audio standard will give iPhone the ability to connect the left and right ears of the AirPods separately.

In July, the Bluetooth Technology Alliance said it expected products that support the LE Audio standard to be available gradually by the end of 2022, while Apple is expected to launch a second-generation AirPods Pro by the end of this year, which means Apple AirPods Pro 2 may support the LE Audio standard.

CTOnews.com learned that, due to the Bluetooth standard, Apple's AirPods headphones did not support Bluetooth connection to play lossless music, while AirPods Pro 2 or LC3, a new coding format based on the LE Audio standard, became Apple's first true wireless headset to support lossless music.
