I've been holding off buying the Airpods knowing an update was incoming. The question is...will there be AirPods 2 announced in 5 days at the keynote? Much like Murphy's Law, any time I buy an Apple device, it drastically accelerates the space-time continuum and somehow causes the new version of the product I just bought to launch right after.

The king of Apple leaks, Mark Gurman (who originally leaked this products features last year) tweeted about this [0]

> These AirPods were initially planned to go on sale last year. They’re also working on a future version with noise-cancellation and water resistance. Those were planned for later this year, but would now imagine that’s for 2020.

I'd take any dates with a healthy dose of salt, as his track record there is less accurate (and obviously dates change pre-announcement).
