Introduction

Unlike traditional, circular earbuds, the design of the EarPods is defined by the geometry of the ear. Which makes them more comfortable for more people than any other earbud-style headphones.

The speakers inside the EarPods have been engineered to maximise sound output, which means you get high-quality audio.

The EarPods (Lightning Connector) also include a built-in remote that lets you adjust the volume, control the playback of music and video, and answer or end calls with a press of the remote.
