Of the first truly wireless earphones were the initial AirPods (late 2016). They raised the interest and formed themselves as indisputable leaders in this new category of software goods. Apple followed with an updated version in early 2019 that introduced a range of items such as wireless charging, “Hello Siri” and battery life marginally improved.  Of default, what comes to mind first is Apple’s September gathering, the company’s signature gathering where the major iPhone launches are often announced. As the initial AirPods were introduced at exactly such an occurrence, this is not at all impossible. So, we could see the introduction of the new AirPods Pro Lite alongside the iPhone 12 series this year.  In terms of availability, the only lead we have is that the Pro Lite is expected to be placed between AirPods and AirPods Pro.  

It costs $159 for standard AirPods.  The same AirPods arrive at $199, albeit with a wireless charging shell.   It was $249 for the premium AirPods Pro. 

 Aside from all that, as we said, if we can trust that the nickname Pro Lite reasonably correctly represents the alleged model, we can expect it to retain the same physical architecture and audio quality. There would definitely also be assistance from Hey Siri, as well as the same degree of water-resistance.
