A new photo posted by French site NowhereElse alleges to show that Apple will include both Lightning-equipped EarPods and a Lightning adapter for 3.5mm headphones with its iPhone 7 Plus. The image shows an alleged packaging insert for a 256GB iPhone 7 Plus that lists both accessories alongside the usual Lightning-to-USB cable and USB power adapter included with every iPhone.
After video footage of both Lightning-equipped EarPods and a Lightning headphone jack adapter emerged, speculation ramped up as to which alleged product, if either, would be included with the new iPhone, which is expected to lack the standard headphone jack.
Including both could be a nod to how big a shift the change is likely to be for iPhone users who still want to be able to use their existing headphones with a new device. Apple is also rumored to be working on Bluetooth-equipped wireless “AirPod” earbuds to round out the listening options in its new post-headphone jack era.
