We're still getting used the idea of Apple's new wireless AirPods, but one 3D modeler has already come up with an amazing new take on them: Jet Black AirPods.

Considering the immediate popularity of the Jet Black iPhone 7, which sold out in minutes, Hajek's question is not only understandable, it also seems like a missed opportunity for Apple.

Still, the concept Jet Black version of the AirPods is compelling. The tiny green indicator light on the charging case looks even cooler framed in black. And Hajek changed the silver tips of the AirPods to gold, which gives the wireless units an even more premium look.

Does that "no comment" mean that we might see such an option in the future? Only Jony Ive's secret cabal of design pros know for sure. But assuming they passed on the Jet Black AirPods option for now, let's hope this very well crafted "what if" AirPods concept gets them to reconsider.
