You'll need to buy this accessory if you want to listen to music on the
iPhone 7
Listening to music is a pretty painless exercise thanks to the magical
synergy of universal headphone jacks, but apparently Apple doesn't agree.
As we've seen consistently through iPhone
<http://www.digitalspy.com/tech/apple/feature/a670501/iphone-7-release-date-
rumours-news-specs-price-and-everything-you-need-to-know/> leaks over
recent months, the Cupertino giant looks primed to drop the standard
headphone port in favour of Lightning compatibility.
How Apple, a company which prides itself on seamless design, makes this
transition has been up for debate. Now, thanks to a fresh video leak from
Vietnamese site

e-3-5mm-co-the-se-di-kem-voi-iphone-7.2627114/> tinhte.vn, we could have the
answer.
The attachment is a Lightning-to-3.5mm adapter, a device that will join
together the next iPhone and your normal pair of headphones.
Reports indicate that Chinese tech company Foxconn is manufacturing the
attachment, though it remains unclear whether it will ship with the phone or
be sold separately. This means you could be forking out extra dough just to
maintain sanity on the commute to work.
While the motives and benefits for dropping the headphone jack are also
unknown, Apple faces the possibility of turning customers off if it does
indeed make the move.
After all, who wants to risk losing yet another crucial attachment?
Here's when you'll be able to pre-order Apple's next iPhone
After a bevy of leaks over recent months, it appears we pretty much know
what to expect when it comes to the next iPhone
<http://www.digitalspy.com/tech/apple/feature/a670501/iphone-7-release-date-
rumours-news-specs-price-and-everything-you-need-to-know/> .
Now, that seemingly includes the date pre-orders will begin.
Once again, the tip comes from reliable phone leaker Evan Blass, who just
days ago reported
<http://www.digitalspy.com/tech/smartphones/news/a802466/is-this-when-the-ne
xt-iphone-will-launch/> when the phone would become available for sale.
Blass has indicated the phone will be ready for pre-orders on Friday,
September 9, meaning the official announcement could come on the same day or
earlier in the week.
While Apple is famously secretive about information in the run-up to
launching, it's increasingly likely that the next instalment of the handset
will drop on the dates Blass indicates.
And no matter how much the iPhone rumours continue over the next six weeks,
it's still got some way to go before out-leaking Samsung's upcoming Galaxy
Note 7
