Despite the AirPods line being an immensely successful one, Apple is reportedly cutting down the production of its wireless earbuds and headphones due to a drop in sales and increased competition from other brands.

Citing sources familiar with Apple’s plans, Nikkei reports that initially, Apple planned on producing 110 million units for the entire year. That figure has dropped to between 75 and 85 million units. The report also does not specify which AirPods model will undergo a production cut. If you are not familiar, Apple currently sells one pair of over-ear headphones called AirPods Max, followed by the AirPods Pro and the second-generation AirPods.
