Video is released reportedly showing off Apple's 'lightning' EarPods
Adding more fuel to the rumor is a video that has just been filmed showing what is described as Apple EarPods with a Lightning connector rather than a 3.5mm plug. The person describes them as "iPhone 7 EarPods" and describes them as looking exactly the same, barring the Lightning connector change. The user plugs them in and loads up a YouTube video and presses various buttons on the EarPods to show that the functionality, at least for the buttons, is working as expected.
There is little to confirm that the Apple EarPods in the video are real, though. This isn't the first time that someone has made Apple EarPods use a Lightning connector and the whole demeanor of the video leaves a lot of questions unanswered. Apple has also usually held more control over its leaks - especially with something as big as this.

I don't like how they plan on doing this, what about the companies that make actual good ear phones like sennheiser? It's just a pain to accommodate that

Eli Eh I think I will just stick with my old ones if this is actually legit.
Totally agree. The old ones are the GOAT. I dont like the idea of this at all..

-Zed First they deny people the ability to charge through Micro USB, which caused somewhat of a rift between Android and Apple users, now this crap. It's no different than Bluetooth, except to achieve this, they're removing the 3.5mm jack. They probably know that their users will probably buy this crap regardless of what they do to it, so Apple doesn't give a damn.
Also with this, you cant have ear buds in your iphone while you are charging the phone... im sure that will irritate a lot of people, and they will get a lot of complaints.
