Although the iPhone 7 has not yet been released, accessories have gone ahead. Lei Technology once mentioned in last week’s “Summary of iPhone 7 Latest Rumors†that it is likely to cancel the traditional 3.5mm headphone jack and switch to the Lightning interface. Recently, third-party earphones equipped with this interface have been formally sold on the Apple China official website, indirectly confirming this rumor.
There are two earphones on sale this time, all from the circle's "flat-headphone workshop" Audeze (Odiz). Both headsets are head-mounted designs with the models Audeze EL-8 Titanium Closed-Back and Audeze EL-8 Open-Back, which are priced at RMB 6498 and RMB 5698, respectively, which is more than the exposure of the 32GB version of the iPhone 7 (5288 yuan) is even higher.
Both earphones belong to the EL-8 series, and there are some differences in the appearance of the design, such as the enclosure design and closed design of the earmuffs. The actual experience, according to Apple's official website, Open-Back models can restore the pure sound quality, but due to the open design, there will be some leakage phenomenon. The other Closed-Back version has a more prominent performance in noise reduction and bass, but it is also accompanied by a slight narrowing of the sound field.
It is reported that these two products are industrially designed by BMW DesignWorks, adopt aluminum metal structure, and are equipped with a planar magnetic driver, which makes the frequency response wider. It supports stacking, Lightning cable, built-in DAC (digital to analog converter) and headphone amplifier.
The website shows that the product will be officially shipped in the next 4-6 weeks, that is, 28-42 days. Almost immediately after the release of the Apple iPhone 7, it will be able to catch up with the first batch of tycoons who have purchased the iPhone 7. Like these two headphones, and consumers who do not have much financial pressure may wish to start, feel the luxury listening experience.
Obviously, the joining of third-party headphone vendors once again proved that Apple canceled the authenticity of the 3.5mm headphone jack. Lenovo thought that Apple had taken the lead in canceling the pre-emptive apple, and the use of Type-C interface to connect the headset, it seems Jabos eventually pressed to treasure. However, the two designs of “non-removable battery†and “back three-stage type†that were brought up by Apple have now spread to domestic mobile phones. Whether the canceled 3.5mm interface of domestic mobile phones will become a general trend in the future?
