Known quirks
- USB-C finally — four years after the iPhone's EU mandate rumors began
- Same H1 chip from 2020 — no ANC or audio improvements; pure port swap
- Lossless audio over USB-C added later via firmware
- New colors but the same condensation issues remain
- Four years at $549 with no core tech refresh is a reliably debated Apple choice
