iOS 14.2 Beta 2 Confirms iPhone 12 Will Not Ship with EarPods in the Box

iOS 14.ii Beta 2 Confirms iPhone 12 Volition Non Ship with EarPods in the Box

Posted by on Sep thirty, 2022 in iPhone 12, News

The latest beta of iOS 14.2 released by Apple tree has removed mentions of the EarPods being bundled with the iPhone 12 lineup corroborating all the rumors that we accept heard so far.

iOS contains a radio frequency disclaimer in the SEttings app that contains some condom warnings and besides lists the accessories that are included with the device. Prior to iOS xiv.2 beta two, this is what the disclaimer stated:

To reduce exposure to RF energy, utilise a easily-free choice, such as the congenital-in speakerphone, the supplied headphones, or other similar accessories.

However, Apple tree has updated this file in iOS xiv.2 beta 2 to remove the mention of the "supplied headphones."

To reduce exposure to RF energy, use a hands-free option, such as the congenital-in speakerphone, headphones, or other similar accessories.

The updated wording pretty much makes information technology articulate that Apple will not be bundling EarPods with its upcoming iPhone 12 lineup. Apple switched to bundling EarPods with Lightning connector starting with the release of the iPhone vii in 2022. The company is too expected to non bundle a ability adapter with the iPhone lineup this year in a bid to cut down on environmental waste and to likewise reduce its BOM which has increased considerably due to the addition of 5G. Apple has already stopped bundling a ability adapter with the Apple Watch Serial vi and Apple Watch SE that launched earlier this month.

Almost all major Android OEMs accept already stopped bundling earphones with their mid-range Android smartphones in a bid to salve cost so the missing EarPods in the iPhone 12 lineup is unlikely to carp about consumers. The missing power adapter, yet, could definitely end up frustrating a lot of iPhone 12 customers.
