Apple\u2019s audio team is undergoing some changes as the company continues to expand its popular AirPods and speaker businesses. Here\u2019s what you need to know about the latest developments:<\/p>\n
\u2013 Reports indicate that AirPods generate approximately $15 billion in annual revenue for Apple and lead the personal audio products market.
\n\u2013 Ruchir Dav\u00e9, an Apple veteran since 2009, is taking over as the new VP in charge of Apple\u2019s audio products.
\n\u2013 The team, which has around 300 employees, plays a pivotal role in managing sound and microphone technologies and contributing to software features like spatial audio.<\/p>\n
In December, Gary Geaves, the current VP, underwent a role shift to report directly to Matt Costello, the executive overseeing Beats and HomePod products. Geaves will remain at Apple as a consultant for the audio team while Costello takes charge of the product design group for accessories.<\/p>\n
Geaves has been instrumental in developing the HomePod smart speaker and spearheading the redesign of Apple\u2019s AirPods lineup over the past two years. The upcoming months are expected to unveil refreshed AirPods 4 and AirPods Pro 3.<\/p>\n
With ongoing efforts to explore new products like a wall-mounted smart display and a combined iPad-HomePod device, it\u2019s clear that Apple is committed to expanding its audio offerings. Stay tuned for more updates on these exciting developments!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
