The latest rumors about the iPhone 7 assure that it will arrive without a 3.5mm jack port. To be able to listen to music with that supposed new iPhone, you would need headphones that use the Lightning connector or were Bluetooth, so everything makes us think that they will include new ones EarPods with at least the change of connector from the current 3.5mm jack to the supposed Lightning that the rumors claim. In addition, as Mark Gurman assures, who has already successfully leaked a lot of information about Apple, the Cupertino company will also launch some fully wireless Bluetooth headphones.
Most likely the accessory will arrive next to iPhone 7 this September, but by "together" I mean in time, since these new headphones would be purchased separately if we wanted to. That they are totally wireless implies not only that they do not connect to the iPhone by means of a cable, but also that there is no cable that connects the right earphone with the left earphone.
These "EarPhones", as described by Gurman although Apple has the trademark "AirPods" and it is expected that this is the name under which they will be put on sale, would include a noise cancellation system, which would allow us to listen to both music and phone calls with higher quality, and communication with Siri would be much more precise, something that currently leaves much to be desired, someone who has tried to ask Siri to put a disc tells you specifically with a little air and has had to remove the iPhone from its case.
Apple would be testing different ways to enlarge or reduce the size of the headphones so that they fit well to our ears, something similar to what other brands have done and which I also think is very necessary. At the same time that I have not been able to ask Siri to play me music accurately while I do sports in the wind, I have also seen how the current EarPods have come out, and that I use a silicone case that covers the headphones. This becomes much more important if we consider that the new headphones are completely independent.
At this time it is practically impossible to know what price these AirPods would reach, but taking into account that the Powerbeats2 Wireless have a price of €199,95, we can think that they will have a similar price. With noise cancellation and without any cables, a lower price on an Apple product would surprise us.
Ufff what a laziness of Bluetooth earpods. Do you have to charge each headset one by one? It seems to me that more than once someone runs out of battery due to an oversight at the most important moment. And headphones with a lightning connector are not a good solution either. When I am in bed and listen to music, I charge the terminal. What a shame of course is taking apple… ..
What a shame of course if ... well that course is the future whether you want it or not, if they do not give an end to that course the industry will never advance and prices will never fall.
On the other hand, there is always the earpods, what else does it give you that Apple launches wireless headphones if you are going to have your lifelong headphones in the box of each new iPhone? Those airpods is one more accessory.
The same will happen with my apple watch, most of it, I bring it almost without charge
These wireless headphones and the elimination of the jack would be justified if wireless "charging" is incorporated, to be able to charge the iphone and listen to music at the same time.
It will be because of how cheap apple products are… I don't think it is the greatest advance, far from it, the lightning connector? Another way that apple has for you to buy only what they have.

I mean, I don't think so. Has no sense. Independent headphones?!?!
It would be very easy to lose one. I do not think they arrive this way, and if they became wireless, they would be linked by a cable (shorter of course)
They should think about it ...
