Apple Powerbeats 4 received FCC approval this week, suggesting that the previously rumored bud with Hey Siri support will soon be available.

We caught the first info on the Powerbeats 4 last month when MacRumors spotted a new Bud image in the iOS 13.3.1 code. When a similar image of the AirPods Pro leaked, Apple released the active noise-canceling earphones shortly thereafter. So now that the Powerbeats 4 has received FCC approval, there is good reason to believe it will be announced within a few weeks.

Powerbeats 4 offers an upgrade to the Powerbeats 3 with Apple's H1 chip that supports hands-free Hey Siri. The premium Powerbeats Pro model now includes this feature, allowing the wearer to easily call Apple's voice assistant.

In terms of design, the Powerbeats 4 looks identical to the Powerbeats 3. A flat cable with audio controls connects the two buds with the lineup's signature around-the-ear hook.

Apple's FCC filing means that the new buds could arrive any day now; since the Powerbeats is not Apple's cherished flagship model, it may be a standalone press release. However, it is not out of the realm of possibility that it will debut at the March Apple event alongside the iPhone SE 2 (or iPhone 9).
