As previously reported, it is expected that the next iPhones will finally gain a porta USB-Creplacing the current and outdated Lightning, which integrates the devices since the iPhone 5. If this materializes, it is natural that the accessories for the product will also be updated, gaining compatibility with the new standard.
One of these accessories, according to a new rumor, should be the forgotten ones nowadays. EarPods. After the withdrawal of the 3.5mm audio output with the iPhones 7/7 Plus, in 2016, the headphones gained a version with a Lightning connector. However, with the popularization of wireless models, such as the AirPods, and the end of their inclusion in the box of devices with the iPhone 12, in 2020, their use has decreased significantly in recent years.
Anyway, the leaker ShrimpApplePro said that a version of Apple’s wired headphones with a USB-C connector is already in mass production “some time ago”. From what he mentioned, the new EarPods should continue with MFi certification – as well as potentially the USB-C cable and port on the new iPhones.
.
Also, MFi USB-C cables and EarPods have been in mass production for a while; that’s the best proof that it’s happening.
On Twitter, another leaker (known as @analyst941) these that the USB-C port of the new iPhones will not have any limitation, so that the devices would charge at maximum speed. the analyst himself Ming-Chi Kuofor example, has already corroborated rumors to the contrary that cables/chargers with the MFi seal will have greater optimization.
In any case, the launch of EarPods with a USB-C connector — possibly alongside the new iPhones — will be great news, considering that it might revive the product, in addition to finally making it possible to use the same wired headphones on the market once more. Mac, iPhone and iPad without the need for adapters.
