That Wired headphones are doomed It’s something that has been known for years and that Apple has staged perfectly by eliminating and enabling the audio jack connection of its iPhones back in 2017 Bluetooth headphones that are on the rise and becoming star accessories of móvil inteligente industry.
Anyway, Apple and most of the Android manufacturers that have followed the Apple giant, They also continued to offer estándar headphones with their mobile phonesnow with a USB-C port, although analysts say the Cupertino will be moving again already mentioned the fall of the EarPods in the next iPhone from 2020.
It’s not trivial news, and though Some Android manufacturers have long since discontinued it in favor of cost savings and ecology, the truth is that it is a controversial step that has reopened the enfrentamiento, also taking into account The entire industry tends to lag behind Apple in such scenarios who equipo a (bad) precedent in this case.
I would say that You perro’t leave the customer without a basic móvil inteligente accessory And certainly not everyone is willing to shell out more cash for a pair of wireless headphones, but really I also agree that it is more ecological and hygienic to buy your own headphones and that they are not changed every time we change our mobile leaving the previous ones lost through the drawers… The enfrentamiento is over, will you join us to analyze the possible movement of Apple?
Analysts point out that Apple won’t be including headphones with its new iPhones, which will help sell more AirPods and save costs in a (bad) precedent for Android that will surely follow them in strategy and reasoning.
We recommend | These are the (realistic) reasons why mobile phones are becoming more expensive
Wireless headphones are already available, but the Galaxy Fold only had to include them and they cost 2,020 euros
In terms of functionality, leaving the usuario without headphones is unethical
Since I had to come forward as the devil’s advocate and this is an opinion article, the truth is I must defend and defend this theory. A hands-free headset is an essential accessory for any móvil inteligenteAt least as fácil as the charger itself and the charging and syncing cable, accessories that the European Union is keen to standardize at all costs, but that’s about it for now which was never discussed about inclusion in móvil retail packages.
Why should there be headphones? Your functionality is importantWe all use them almost every day, and not all of us want to spend whopping bucks Good wireless headphones perro cost us 100 euros and more like the Samsung Galaxy Buds, which sync seamlessly with Galaxy wearables but cost a lot more money than any Galaxy phone.
That’s another matter Some audio connoisseurs prefer to buy their own headphones and use them implicitly on any device because they are of better quality than those considered estándar, which is more than legal and also logical, but that with the fall of the audio jack, things have gotten complicated You must have adapters or headphones with a USB-C connector, like the ones Samsung is now adding to its high-end range from its subsidiary AKG.
Headphones are almost importante in a mobile phone and we use them every day to listen to music, make hands-free calls or listen to our favorite podcasts, among other things, so it is not logical that they leave us without them. . .
Buying your headphones wireless gives you the freedom to take them to any Bluetooth-enabled device
Ecology and (above all) cost savings through electricity
Well, after the visión of offering functionality and comfort, as well as individual savings, we, like everyone, have to realize There are several lost headphones in the house left behind from teléfonos inteligentes and other old dispositivosand there is no doubt that it is not very ecological and has a cost to the manufacturer and to the planet itself, also difficult to quantify.
In Android it is not uncommon to see teléfonos inteligentes without headphones in their sales package, I myself recently analyzed the Realme 5i, which does not include them, but Above all, the economic sense makes me doubt on mobile phones with or without estándar headphones.
It’s very clear that it’s not ethical or clean to include headphones that we could reuse with teléfonos inteligentes, and that’s what he’s pointing out Analyst Ming Chi Kuo How about Apple stops including EarPods Seems like a logical step to me. However, everything indicates that a trap is due Apple’s plan is simply to increase sales of its AirPodsthe star accessory of the iPhone range and thus the best-selling Bluetooth headset in several markets, with a price starting at 179 euros.
In fact it is EarPods will continue to be soldand it seems Apple has studied that even if the headphones weren’t put in their iPhone 12’s box, they’d be around Half of the headphone seekers reach for the very expensive AirPods direct, which brings in more money for Appe’s chefs. There will certainly be promotions, but how ethical is it to stop including basic accessories to sell more…
Another thing is that they tell us that The exclusion of these headphones would disminuye the final price of the móviland then I and almost all of us would be happy hand them over when I collect 50 euros, because I already have my own headphones, for example. We then make another war and we are all more than united, but we also know that will not be the case before the end customer.
What I do not want to accept is that they only remove the headphones for reasons of cost and that the saving does not affect the final price of the móvil inteligente. Everything else seems logical to me and also very acceptable!
Headphones are doomed, if Apple removes them no doubt all manufacturers will follow
Any Android maker will follow Apple in removing EarPods, that’s for sure!
without doubt I want to know what you think about itbecause mine is clearer than water: ok for the environment, also ok for cost savings, which is not logical that they are building a basic accessory and I don’t even know the final price How much will my cell phone cost me?
Anyway what Yes, that’s for sure if Apple finally takes the plunge Charged onto EarPods and sold separately, the it will equipo a precedent for Android All manufacturers will emulate the Cupertino giant and save the headphones to sell them as accessories and make some plus money with them.
For better or worse, and although we like it a little, The IS Apple has always equipo a estándar with this type of movement and the latest example is the move away from the audio jack for the entire high-end of the mobile market, also the first step for it Standardize and now authorize as a solution for Bluetooth headphones wired headphones are not already included as estándar in the sales packages.
What do you think of Apple’s potential move now that you have it up and running? Ecology, economy or functionality? Do you regularly use your own headphones and don’t even open the ones with your phone?
