How can we identify who's rich/cool enough to own an apple device without white ear phones in their ears?!
I assume it'll come with Bluetooth ear/headphones?
Gotta say they're the best things I've had bought for me all year (Emtec e200 earphones. They're brilliant)

This rumor's been going on for months. I got my first pair of Bluetooth headphones for Christmas and they're great! So... wouldn't bother me. Then again, if it's just for the sake of making it thinner I don't really see the point. Would rather it just stayed the same with a bigger battery!

It'll come with Bluetooth earphones I believe. I can't get on with them though so I use headphones and really don't mind having a wire on them as use the headphones with multiple devices.

Apparently the music will be sent to the earphones without wires, like streaming video to TV wirelessly (chrome cast etc), only problem being is that other people can hear the music as well because of the way it sends it across.

Time to don your tinfoil hats lads.
Let me guess, will Apple be listening along to our music too?

The current 'trend' is for digital head-phones which kind of renders the analogue head-phone jack redundant..

Yes because hacking into a secure frequency hopping spread spectrum digital connection is such an easy thing to do

Thought they were removing the standard jack and making use of the Lightning port for wired headphones?

Now that sounds much more likely. Apple do love to restrict their users to specific expensive accessories

No interest in upgrading my car stereo, headphones and other audio equipment to suit my phone. So I bought a 6S Plus last week
(Plus bored of the fact you cant ever get the phones at launch and the inevitable price increase on tarrifs etc)

Nothing terrible, nothing much difference to my 6, which I've had since release day and still works perfectly.
Will no doubt get the 7, when upgrade is due.

It's pointless buying anything other than apple products. If you do you might as well just admit to being a failure in life.
