For a while now, Apple has bundled wired earphones with the purchase of every iPhone, and even changed the connecting port to Lightning after it got rid of the headphone jack on the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. Unfortunately, with the iPhone 12 launch, revered analyst Ming-Chi Kuo believes that Apple won’t be bundling any wired earphones as the technology giant might want to increase the sales of its AirPods and perhaps the sales of the upcoming AirPods Studio.

According to the latest report from analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple might not include wired earphones as part of the packaging included with the iPhone 12. Also known as EarPods, these wired pair of headphones are provided with every purchase of an iPhone, but it looks like things are going to be different this time around. With wireless earphones being removed, this would naturally drive up the sales of AirPods, and there aren’t any new models expected this year, meaning that customers will need to settle for older models like the AirPods Pro or the second-generation AirPods.
