Apple EarPods with a Lightning connector spotted

The rumor mill expects that the iPhone 7 will not have a headphone jack, weve even seen schematics confirm it. But we still hadnt seen the other side of the equation - the headphones with a Lightning port.

Well, heres a photo of just such headphones. Nothing has changed really, the remote hasnt gained new features to justify the new port. Its just that these cant be plugged into non-Apple products (or old Apple products for that matter).

The Lightning connector at the bottom seems bigger than the connector on Apple USB cables. Perhaps theres a bit of electronics in there? And its rounded, while official Apple cables are squared off, so this could be a third-party product.

Earlier, we saw an adapter from Lightning to 3.5mm jack, which could bring your old-school headphones to the new iPhone. Either way, expect some pricey new headphones to hit the market (Apple does own Beats).
