Support Hey Siri and other functions, media mining iOS 16.4 code found traces of "Beats Studio Buds+" headphones

CTOnews.com March 22 news, foreign technology media 9to5Mac through in-depth mining iOS 16.4 RC version of the system code, found an unreleased "Beats Studio Buds+" headphones.

By mining the system code, the media found that the "Beats Studio Buds+" headset has the same active noise reduction and penetration mode as the Beats Studio Buds released in 2021.

The media found in the code that the headset supports functions such as Hey Siri. At first, the media thought it would use Apple AirPods's proprietary W1 / H1 chip, but later communicated with the source that the new Beats Studio Buds+ would still use a custom Beats chip instead of Apple's H1 / H2.

CTOnews.com Note: compared with AirPods, one of the functions that Beats Studio Buds lacks is ear penetration detection. This means that Beats Studio Buds does not automatically play and pause content when you take them out or put them in your ear.

Beats Studio Buds also does not support automatic device switching and does not synchronize your paired devices in iCloud, so you need to connect manually on each new device.
