(steven overly, tech reporter, washington post) "this plug right here, that we're all used to, plugging in to listen to music, will no longer exist on the iphone 7." (brian todd, reporting) "what is the upside to that?" (steven overly, tech reporter, washington post) "well the upside, for anyone who's ever gone on a run and had the cord get sort of tangled or put it in the bottom of their bag and had to un-knot it, that will no longer be an issue." to save space, headphones will only plug into the lightning port - the

charging. included in your purchase: earbuds with a lightning- port plug... and an adaptor to plug in normal 3.5mm headphones used by everyone else. but the biggest innovation: for another $159, there will be wireless earbuds, called airpods.
