Are headphones included with iphone 7

No, they (probably) won't fall out of your ears.

So... Apple decided to remove the headphone jack in the new , and the Internet just exploded. Fortunately, the giant has come up with a solution - AirPods wireless headphones. But, to the chagrin of many, they are not included with the phones. Instead, the headphones are sold as a premium accessory, and are overly advertised. The guys from BuzzFeed bought themselves a pair of headphones to test and find out if they are as cool and epic as Apple promised, and the editors of this useful site have prepared for you a translation of this test drive from 11 things you should know before you buy Apple's new wireless headphones.

Below are 11 questions that should interest any potential AirPods buyer.

1. How much do they cost and where can I buy them?

Apple AirPods wireless headphones cost $159, and that's really expensive. Therefore, read the article further to determine for yourself whether the new product is worth the cost.

You can buy headphones at an Apple Store in your area or online at Apple's website.

2. How are AirPods different from EarPods?

Imagine if someone took regular EarPods (the ones that come with every iPhone), cut the wires, and put them in a nice little box for storage and charging. So much for AirPods.

The headphones connect to your phone via Bluetooth. When you insert them into your ears, they emit a confirmation signal that the connection has taken place. Then you launch your music app - voila! The whole process takes literally seconds.

Double tapping any earbud activates Siri. When you remove one of the headphones from your ear, the music stops playing.

By the way, the sound quality is almost the same as the old EarPods.

3. How does Siri work with AirPods?

Alas, not very much. But it’s worth saying that the sound quality during calls is excellent, which makes them an excellent tool for hands-free conversations. Interlocutors on the other side also note a clean and clear sound during a conversation.

Let's return to Siri. Using a virtual assistant with AirPods is not that comfortable. First of all, to activate the application, you need to touch the headphones twice at the right angle, and the application itself will launch in a few seconds. The idea is that you then give Siri commands like “next track” or “turn up volume,” but let's be real, shouting these commands in public doesn't look very appropriate.

It would be great if there were other non-verbal ways to control the music - like triple-tapping to increase volume or other useful movements.

4. Do the headphones easily connect to your phone, computer and other devices?

AMAZINGLY easy to connect.AirPods WithiPhone. You just need to open the box, click on the connection and you're done. If your phone is connected to iCloud (and 99.9% of the time it is), it will automatically show all other Apple devices. This means that connecting and turning on headphones on all devices is very simple.

5. Can I use AirPods if I don't have an iPhone?

Yes you can. But the main advantage AirPods in how easily they synchronize and how well they work withiPhone and other Apple gadgets. So, if you use Android devices or other non-Apple gadgets, your best bet is to invest in proper wireless headphones.

If you want to ignore this advice, here's the information: On the back of the box there is a small button that activates the Bluetooth search function and shows up in your phone's Bluetooth menu. After that, simply touch the headphones and they will connect to the device.

6. Will the headphones fall out of my ears?

It all depends on the size and shape of your ears. In medium sized earsAirPodsThey hold up superbly. The headphones were tested in a variety of situations, including jumping up and down, running and head shaking - and nothing happened to them.

The only point: if you wear a hat or hood, you should make sure that it does not pull the headphones out of your ears. This also applies to long hair.

7. Is it convenient to play sports with AirPods?

Very comfortably. With them, you don't have to worry about the cord getting in the way. You can leave the box at home. By the way, sweat has no effect on the headphones.

Are AirPods waterproof? No. You can't swim with them, that's for sure. But, as we said, they are sweat-resistant, so you can actively engage in your favorite sports.

8. Do they hold a charge well?

Apple claims five hours of continuous use on a single charge. With a box this period is 24 hours.

If you're used to charging your phone and other devices overnight, you won't have any problems. They set it up and went to sleep. This means that the device will never run out of charge.

If you are one of those who are annoyed by the very need to charge their gadgets and whose phone charge is constantly at 1%, AirPodsnot for you.

9. Is it convenient to travel with new headphones?

As one of our colleagues said, she is still a fan of regular EarPods, because the issue of constant charging gives her discomfort. Before her last flight to Los Angeles, she fully charged her AirPods, and there wasn't enough charge to last the entire flight. This means that she had to constantly stop to recharge in the case. According to her, it was not too tedious, but anyone who wants to buy a new product should keep this in mind.

10. Is there a risk of losing the headphones?

Actually, it depends on how forgetful you are. If you're careful enough, you can easily keep track of yoursAirPods. Just get into the habit of putting your headphones in their case when you're not using them, and keeping the case in your pocket or purse where they can be easily removed.

If you happen to lose one earphone from a pair, you can go to the Apple store and buy a new one for $60.

11. Are AirPods worth buying?

We think thatAirPods beautiful, but created for a specific user with a specific set of requirements.

AirPods – headphones for you,…

* ... if you are a responsible person, in whose hands every new gadget does not break

* ... if you adore expensive things and passionately want to squander another amount of money

* … if you are a fan of minimalist things with quality design

*...if you are constantly on the phone in your car and are looking for a wireless solution with amazing sound quality that can be used as headphones

*...if you just want something outstanding and you're an iPhone user

But …

* ... if you're not looking for a way to spend money on essentially the same sound quality as the previous gadget, just pass by

At the 2016 presentation, Apple presented not only the seventh generation of iconic smartphones, but also wireless headphones for the iPhone 7.

Cupertino decided to completely change the concept of connecting a headset to a phone. There is no 3.5 mm jack.

As an alternative, it was proposed to use original wired headphones that connect to the Lightning port, or AirPods.

Let's take a closer look at how wireless headphones work and why they should be used instead of a regular headset.

Contents:

Equipment

The headphone package includes a minimum number of elements. At first glance, the contents of the box seem meager for such a considerable cost of the product, however, there is everything necessary for comfortable work.

The box itself is made of durable cardboard, which many users prefer to use as additional storage space for the headset.

The package includes:

• Case. It is also a charger;
• Lightning cable;
• User manual.

To recharge the headphones, just place them in the plastic case. Please note that you must use a Lightning cable to pre-charge the case's battery.

Appearance

Externally, the new headset is very similar to the familiar EarPods wired headphones.

In terms of shape, the wireless device is slightly thicker and fits better in the ears. The engineers first of all made sure that the chance of losing the gadget while wearing it was minimized.

More voluminous type of headphones This is explained not only by the desire to make them reliable, but also by the presence of a built-in battery, microphone and a large number of other parts that are responsible for the interaction of the gadget with mobile devices.

One of the main components of the headphones is the W1 chip, which completely controls the operation of the headset - from monitoring the charge level to connecting with any devices.

Also, the headphones have a proximity sensor. Its task is to determine whether the headphones are inserted into the user's ears.

Appearance of the plastic box Internet users have already dubbed it “like a box for dental floss.” In fact, the shape of such a case is very practical and convenient.

Inside the box for each of the headphones there is a special compartment that secures them firmly and at the same time charges them.

As soon as you place the headset in the plastic case, it automatically recharges. The box works on the same principle as usual, so you first need to charge it and then place the headphones inside.

It should be noted that the headphones are fixed in a plastic box using a magnet, which is built into the bottom of the box.

Thus, they will never fall out of their storage location, unless they hit a hard surface hard.

There is virtually no play in the housing cover, and the hinge itself is made of metal for even greater reliability. Also, the lid closes with a built-in magnet.

Price

AirPods do not belong to the category of democratic gadgets. Otherwise, this is a normal thing for Apple products. In Russia, you can purchase headphones at official sales points for 13,000 rubles .

On American sites the scene is $159 .

The cost is really impressive, however, for your money you will get really high-quality headphones that cannot be compared with well-known Bluetooth headset models from, or.

If you lose one of the headphones, you can purchase it separately for $69. This price includes only one earphone, without plastic box and charging cable.

Device support

The presented wireless headphones work with both new and earlier generations of smartphones and tablets from Apple.

The official list of supported devices is as follows:

By releasing AirPods, Apple decided not to limit itself only to supporting its devices. The headphones can be easily connected to any other Android smartphone. The only difference is the reduction in functionality.

AirPods interact with officially supported devices not only via a Bluetooth connection, but also at the OS software level.

With “non-native” gadgets, there is no function of connecting through the menu or instantly stopping the track after turning off the headset.

How do they work?

The principle of operation of AirPods is quite simple. You turn on Bluetooth on your phone and the devices automatically connect to each other. Using a wireless headset, you can listen to music, record sound, and make calls.

There is no need to use any additional adapters. The only thing you should pay attention to is the charging level of the headphones.

They turn off immediately after the battery life is exhausted. To recharge, simply place the headset in the plastic case.

Built-in sensors and diodes

On the edges of each of the headphones, two sensors are visible, with the help of which the device “understands” when the user inserts it into the ear or puts it on charge.

To stop playback, simply put one of the headphones aside. To “deceive” the gadget, you can hide it in your palm.

And the microphone interacts perfectly with each other for incoming and outgoing calls. The sound of an incoming call is automatically redirected to the headset.

Inside the charging case there is a diode with which you can monitor the status of the headset without connecting it to a smartphone. If the LED starts blinking red, you need to put the headphones on to charge. The activation of the charging process is indicated by the green light of the diode.

Connection toiPhone

Let's look at how to set up the first connection of wireless headphones to your iPhone.

First, make sure that your mobile device has a newer firmware version installed. Older versions of the operating system do not support interaction with headphones.

Apple has organized the most convenient and fast interaction between the phone and headset. The user only needs to charge the plastic headphone box, put the headset in it and charge it.

Follow the instructions:

• When the headphones are at least slightly charged, unlock your smartphone, place it near the docking station and turn on Bluetooth;
• On iPhone screen a dialog box will appear immediately with data from detected AirPods;
• Click on “Connect”;

• The connection will take less than a second. As a result, detailed information about the headset will appear on the screen. In this window you can control the remaining battery life of both the plastic buck itself and the headphones. To start using AirPods, click on the “Done” button.

Now you can play any music or video on your phone. The sound will be played through the headphones. If you receive a call, the gadget will automatically turn off the music and turn on the built-in microphone.

Also, users noted an interesting feature of the operation of wireless headphones. AirPods can sync with your alarm clock. When the signal is triggered, it plays both from the phone's speakers and through the headphones.

Control Features

If the user removes one earphone from their ears, music playback will be paused automatically . An excellent solution from Apple, because often we take one of the wired headphones out of our ears to hear the other person. With AirPods, the song, video, will be paused, and you will be able to hear the other person without skipping a track or taking your smartphone out of your pocket.

Removing all headphones from ears ends file playback .

To select wireless headphones as a sound source, click on the microphone icon and in the list that opens, click on AirPods. Now speak any command and wait for it to complete.

The audio of all incoming calls is automatically sent to AirPods. For outgoing calls, the user can select the talk mode. At the dialing stage, there is a button to switch between the iPhone speakers and the wireless headset.

Connection toApple Watch

AirPods work not only with smartphones and tablets, but also with Apple smartwatches. You can connect a wireless headset to any watch model, regardless of its generation. You only need to update the IOS firmware to version 10 or 11.

Many users prefer to use AirPods with Apple Watch. since in combination these two devices work as a full-fledged music player, which is convenient to take with you to the gym or on a trip.

Before connecting the headphones, we recommend downloading music and adding it to the watch’s memory. To do this, add your favorite tracks to the “Music” section on your iPhone/iPad and synchronize your watch with your phone. In the window "My watch" select field "Music" and set up a connection with your smartphone.

Remember! Phone and smartwatch data will only be synced if the watch is connected to a charger.

Follow the instructions:

1 Make sure the headphones are charged;

2 In the clock settings window click on the “Bluetooth” field and in the available devices section select AirPods;

3 On your watch, go to the main menu and click on the Music application icon;

4 In the playback source selection field click on the headphones icon;

5 Play any music track and enjoy your wireless headset.

Connection withAndroid-devices

One of the advantages of Apple's wireless headset is its interaction with devices that work. To connect your gadget to headphones, just open your phone settings, go to the Bluetooth settings window and select AirPods from the list of available devices.

It is worth noting that the operation of the headset with third-party operating systems may be accompanied by slight background noise immediately after connecting the headset.

Sound

The sound of AirPods is much better than that of EarPods. The hardware component of a wireless headset differs significantly from its wired counterpart.

Despite the fact that all differ in the presence of noise, Apple managed to create a model that is devoid of these shortcomings (if you use the headset with compatible Apple technology).

AirPods users report a more “matte” and clear sound when compared to wired headphones. Testing the sound of music of different genres and directions showed that the bass is heard well, the performer’s vocals are clear, and acoustic tracks and classical melodies are reproduced volumetrically and pleasantly for the listener.

The playback quality is the same for both music from the library and files from streaming services and third-party sites.

Operating time and usage experience

Apple says that the operating time of the headphones in activity mode reaches 5 hours . As you know, company representatives have never tried to exaggerate the operating capabilities of their devices.

AirPods users actually note that the headphones are discharged after 5 hours of continuous listening to music.

In 5 hours you can listen to an average of 5 music albums, which is an excellent indicator for the autonomy of a wireless headset.

Function "Fast charging" allows you to fully charge the headset in 15-20 minutes. You can view the battery and dock status indicator by connecting the headphones to the phone.

It should be noted that AirPods not protected from moisture . Testing has shown that the headset does not break during a walk in the rain or after visiting the gym. But you don’t need to swim with your headphones in – this will leave them in a condition beyond repair.

Some users note that due to the strong magnet, the headphones are quite difficult to pull out. You won't be able to do this with one hand, because you first need to turn the plastic holder down and pull the headphones hard.

In general, they do not cause discomfort and provide a reliable mount for the gadget.

The design of the gadget does not imply strong sound insulation, so you should not expect a vacuum effect from the headphones. Even with the volume of the song being played at a high volume, you will be able to hear voices quite well in a crowded place.

It should also be noted that it is inconvenient to use Siri in a crowded place. If you control the assistant through a headset and are in a crowded area, the commands will be poorly recognized, because the AirPods will simultaneously record the voices of other people and extraneous noise.

Many users also note the convenience of fully automatic operation of the headphones. They don't need to be turned on or off all the time. The gadget itself will understand when to stop playing or pause the track.

The market leader in smartphones and the most valuable Apple corporation are setting the newest trend for mobile devices - the iPhone 7 will no longer connect headphones via a standard 3.5 mini-jack slot. Before Apple, only Lenovo and another Chinese company experimented with producing smartphones without the standard connector that has been in use for more than 50 years. We decided to analyze the positive and negative aspects of this decision, and whether it is worth throwing away your old but beloved headphones.

A little about history

The headphone slot is nothing more than a smaller version of the TRS connector, which has been in use since the 1870s and has a diameter of 6.35 millimeters. The standard TRS plug received its universal purpose for transmitting an analog audio signal only some time later, and at first it was used for telephone equipment and was intended for transmitting a stereo signal.

For musicians and the recording industry, the TRS connector and its mono version TS remain the industry standard to this day. But the TRS version, already familiar to us, first appeared in the 1960s and around the 1970s, Walkman players brought fame to the mini-jack connector. Until now, this connector has become the standard for consumer headphones.

The most important thing about the 3.5 connector is its complete versatility. Starting our journey with cassette players, our 3.5 millimeter slot migrated without any difficulties, first to CD players, and after MP3 and, as usual for us, to phones. And you must admit, there have almost never been any difficulties with the fact that it would be impossible to connect headphones to a phone, player, or even connect to a desktop PC. The connector remained unchanged throughout its existence, with the exception of adding an additional cross-section to it - to be able to install a microphone for a conversation, switch or rewind a track - but this did not in any way affect compatibility with devices.

The mini-jack is used everywhere and no one has rights to it. And in order to repair a frayed wire, it was enough to have a soldering iron.

But in the end, Apple technical developers decided to go against established rules again - and deprived the iPhone 7 of the 3.5 connector. Now, in order to comfortably listen to music from your brand new iPhone, you need headphones with a Lightning slot. Of course, there is another solution - an adapter that will allow you to use headphones with a standard plug. The cost of such an adapter is 799 rubles, and standard Apple headphones are 2390 rubles. It’s also worth adding that Apple showed AirPods wireless headphones at the presentation, with a price of 12,990 rubles.

Why it is good

The standard audio signal transmission process, which is used in all modern phones today, is very old - more than 100 years. Apple is once again breaking the mold, forcing the entire industry to look for more modern ways to transmit audio signals.

The sound we hear is transmitted in analog form. In order to convert sound from digital to analog, smartphones have a special module. When using the Lightning connector, the headphones immediately receive a digital signal, and only then will the conversion into sound take place using the equipment located in the headphone housing. For example, this will make it possible to install an active noise reduction system, which requires constant power. This cannot be done with regular headphones without an additional battery.

It is worth noting that they said “no” to the 3.5 slot, not only in Cupertino. Two months ago, Intel came up with a proposal to make it possible to transmit a digital audio signal into the USB Type-C connector - in order to quickly get rid of the 3.5 millimeter size. According to Intel spokesman Brad Sanders, this is simply a huge device compared to other equipment that is installed in mobile phones. Without the mini-jack, mobile phones could be much thinner.

On the plus side, it is also worth adding that after the presentation of the iPhone 7, other major manufacturers will enter the market and produce headphones with Lightning support. So we should expect an alternative to the “native” Apple headphones.

And now about the bad

Departure from the standard is always painful and difficult. The main disadvantage will be the inconvenience of use and the lack of versatility. Now your favorite headphones can only be connected to the new iPhone via an adapter - and no one is safe from the fact that it can be lost. And in general, this is an additional device when, in our age, all humanity strives for ease of use.

The “native” headphones that come with the package can only be used with the new 7, or you can buy an adapter. The epicness of the situation lies in the fact that Apple MacBooks do not have a Lightning port. So Apple's next innovation brings a certain amount of inconvenience.

Let's not forget to talk about wireless headphones, but this is clearly not the answer. We can agree that Bluetooth headphones have become better recently, but it cannot be called a panacea. Firstly, they are significantly more expensive, secondly, they require constant recharging (an additional limitation to the desire for simplicity) and thirdly, not all wireless headphones keep a good connection.

Personal opinion

As time shows, one of the reasons for Apple’s uniqueness lies in its non-standard approach to seemingly standard things, and the ability to push its view on the market. Back in 2007, on September 9th, Steve Jobs introduced the first generation iPhone. One of the theses of that speech was to show the audience something different, modern, something that should push the entire technology industry forward. And here, in the case of the standard 3.5 mini-jack connector, I probably agree that it’s time to try new things, move towards more advanced technologies and other solutions. This is probably why we love Apple - for the ability to try new things.

At the presentation of the new iPhones of the seventh line, future owners of the iPhone 7 learned how the seven differs from previous devices. As always, the characteristics of this gadget were impressive. But the special feature was the headphones that come with the iPhone 7. To keep up with the times, Apple decided to introduce this innovation.

What is the EarPods package? Which headphones will be better for users - regular or wireless? Read about all this below.

Let's first do a general overview of this device. Let's see what's good about this phone and what are its main technical parameters.

So, following the “sixes”, the iPhone 7 has:

• The display is 4.7 inches in size.
• RAM capacity - 2 GB.
• Built-in memory to choose from in 3 variations - 32, 128, 256 GB.
• The main camera is 12 MP and for selfies – 7 MP.
• Processor A10, with 4 cores.
• "Operating system" version 10.
• Cases in 4 colors.
• Lightning – headphone jack.
• Moisture protection technology.

The main features of the iPhone 7 are several things. Firstly, it is water and dust protection technology. The gadget’s body is reliably protected by IP67 technology.

Another notable point is the absence of a conventional headphone jack. The user can listen to music tracks using the Lightning connector. Charging is also carried out through the latter.

Apple has specially created innovative headphones. The iPhone 7 headphones are wireless. But you don’t have to give up standard headsets either. The gadget comes with an adapter through which you can connect a regular accessory. The company also added stereo speakers located on the front side to the new model of the device.

Among the wide variety of iOS gadgets, the seven has the best camera. It has 12 MP, f 1/1.8 aperture and optical image stabilization.

The 7 MP selfie camera is also of high quality. But the Plus model even has 2 cameras, switching between which is possible right during operation.

Another advantage of the 7 over previous models of Apple devices is the elimination of versions with a minimum memory capacity of 16 GB. Now the minimum is 32 GB. And the maximum is impressive - it’s as much as 256 GB.

The color scheme of the cases has changed slightly. For example, we removed one of the shades of gray and added Jet Black.

And one more feature is the introduction of the Force Touch function into the “Home” button. Thanks to this, the latter does not have to be pressed - a simple touch is enough.

iPhone 7 and EarPods

Even at the presentation, the developers showed the capabilities of new headphones that work wirelessly. In their opinion, they should completely discourage users from using the outdated 3.5 mm connector. Apple added new elements to the iPhone 7 kit. There is also a case that serves as a charger for them.

The operating period of EarPods without additional recharging is up to 5 hours, and the case – up to a day. Headphones can interact with smartphones. Watches and other gadgets from Apple via iCloud. They can be controlled using Siri. EarPods can also act as a microphone for conversations.

The price for this accessory is quite high and is about 160 dollars. But after spending money on EarPods, you won’t have to worry about how to connect headphones to the iPhone 7.

Notable Facts about EarPods

So, what's great about these accessories besides the fact that they work wirelessly? Of course, this is their main advantage. But there are other features that few people know about. And the whole point is the taciturnity of Apple representatives, who are usually stingy with words at presentations of new products. But today many details about the operating features of EarPods are already known.

Advantages of wireless headphones from Apple:

1 New W1 processor.

This chip is the latest development of the Apple company. And he is entrusted with most of the processes occurring on the device. According to the developers, the chip in headphones expands the Bluetooth wavelength range, sharing the connection much better than other devices. But besides this, energy saving technology has also improved. Thanks to the new processor, the sound quality has also improved.

2 A large number of different sensors.

EarPods are literally stuffed with different elements of this type. But this is a necessary measure to save battery energy. Using sensors, the gadget can “find out” what their owner is currently doing. For example, he plays music or speaks.

EarPods can randomly turn off music playback, even if they are not currently in use by the owner. And this is achieved thanks to the accelerometer and the same sensors. In this case – optical. They are also able to detect which headphone is free and adjust the volume and operation of the microphone. Using noise reduction technology, the headphones reduce the audibility of extraneous sounds. They can also detect when a mobile phone conversation is taking place.

3 Simple call to Siri.

Using EarPods, it's very easy to talk to Siri. To call this assistant, you need to “tap” 2 times on the headphones and on the iOS gadget to which the headset is connected. Communication can be carried out directly through EarPods, without touching the mobile device, and in this mode you can command the assistant. For example, you can make a call, find out about the weather, play music and much more.

4 Fast charging process.

EarPods battery doesn't last too long. Approximately this period is 5 hours if you listen to tracks or talk. Of course, this is not enough, especially if you need to make a lot of calls.

But, as always, the developer offered a solution to the problem. The headphones come with a case for wireless charging. According to Apple, it can recharge EarPods more than 5 times. Therefore, you can use the headset almost all the time without searching for a nearby outlet.

However, most users are already accustomed to the fact that lithium-ion cells take a long time to charge. But the developers, taking into account the rapid discharge of EarPods, came up with a solution and provided the accessory with a special case. It charges the headphones within 15 minutes. And after that, you can calmly listen to your favorite tracks for about 5 hours. And you can find out about the battery charge level very easily, despite the gadget. Simply call Siri by voice and ask what the current battery status of the EarPods is.

5 Availability of connection to any device.

Of course, we are talking about gadgets from Apple, and not about absolutely all devices from third-party manufacturers.

EarPods connect to iOS gadgets (even outdated versions) without problems. And if the user connects a wireless accessory via Bluetooth to the iPhone once, data will be exchanged via iCloud between all of his iOS devices. Of course, all devices must be connected to the same “account” in iTunes. And subsequently the user will be able to listen to music on any of these gadgets through EarPods.

Main characteristics of the devices:

The main features of the new iPhone models will be several things. Firstly, previously unknown water resistance: the smartphone is protected from dust and moisture getting inside the case according to the IP67 standard.

Secondly, the 3.5mm headphone jack has been removed from the device. Now you will have to listen to music through the Lightning connector, through which charging also occurs. Apple has developed new wireless headphones especially for this, but you won’t have to give up Lightning either: a special “Lightning to minijack” adapter will be included with the purchase of the iPhone 7. The smartphone also has built-in stereo speakers on the front of the case.

iPhone 7 has the best camera among all Apple devices: 12 megapixels with f 1/1.8 aperture and optical image stabilization. The front camera has 7 megapixels. The iPhone 7 Plus will have two cameras. One of them is wide-angle, and the other has a long-focus lens that “zooms in” on the image. You can switch between cameras while shooting. In addition, the iPhone 7 got rid of the minimum storage capacity of 16 GB. It was replaced by 32 GB, and the maximum increased to 256 GB. The range of colors for the iPhone case has also changed a little: Space Gray has disappeared, and Jet Black has appeared.

In addition, the Home button now has Force Touch functionality and no longer needs to be pressed.

When will the iPhone 7 come out and how much will it cost?

The average cost of an iPhone will be $649 for the iPhone 7 32 GB, the iPhone 7 Plus will cost more – starting from $749. Russia has entered the second wave of distribution of Apple's smartphone, and it will go on sale starting September 23. In countries of the first wave - from September 16.

Wireless headphones

Included with the iPhone 7, Apple showed a demo of new wireless headphones that should erase all mention of the 3.5mm jack. The headphones come with a special case that charges the headphones. This case serves as a portable charger for your headphones. The EarPods themselves will work without recharging for about five hours, and the case for them will last about a day. The headphones can work in conjunction with a smartphone, Apple Watch smartwatch and all Apple devices via iCloud. You can control them using the Siri voice assistant. The device also supports a microphone function for conversations.

Apple AirPods will cost $159.
