What is warranty, if any, on Earpods with Lightning connector purchased from a retail outlet?
I bought Earpods with Lightning Connector (MMTN2AM) at a Best Buy on 3/1/2018 and today they are broken (4/18/2018). They have not been damaged. Are these covered on any type of warranty or are they replaceable? Note, this is the second pair of these that have quit working since I got this phone in the fall.

Does it come with the same style plastic case?
In the unboxing of the new iPhone 7, it seems the Lightning EarPods don't come with the plastic case that previous iPhones did. Do these come in a similar paper case like the iPhone 7 or more like the plastic version from the 3.5 mm EarPods?

Can the volume controls on these be used to take photos?
- Asked by Sandra B from Kansas City

- Flag as inappropriate (Can the volume controls on these be used to take photos?)
AnswerYes, using your media remote on the EarPods will change the volume, which will start and stop videos and act as a shutter button for photos. Any device connected to your device that can externally chancan your volume should absolutel work, as it triggers the shutter button.

Answer
That would depend on what combination of products you have. If you have an iPhone 8, 8 Plus or X, you can use a Qi charging pad to charge the iPhone while using the Lightning port for your EarPods with Lightning connector. Otherwise you can use a splitter cable, such as Belkin’s, to effectively double your Lightning port. Otherwise you cannot charge the iPhone and use EarPods with Lightning connector simultaneously.

Does this no longer come with the plastic case that came with the 3.5's?
- Asked by Steven C from Milford

- Flag as inappropriate (Does this no longer come with the plastic case that came with the 3.5's?)
AnswerNo. Mine came wrapped around a paper square similar to the older version's plastic square one. The plastic square that comes on the 3.5 ones isn't that cool anyway...I'd thought of it as more of some sort of fancy packaging.. It's too much fuss to re-wrap it so that it fits just right. Wow, I feel silly now. I didn't know it was supposed to be used as its case. Over the years I've tossed many in the bin straight away.

Can these be adapted to work with Macs or any other devices?
- Asked by Arion P from Palo Alto

- Flag as inappropriate (Can these be adapted to work with Macs or any other devices?)
AnswerNo they cannot. The reason for this is because MacBooks do not have lightning ports. The only products it would work with are iPhone 5s and up and iPod 5 and 6
