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?

How will these work for backwards compatibility, like a MacBook Pro?
I see that the new iPhone will include a male lightning to female co-axil adapter. Will there be a female lightning to male co-axil adapter as well? If not, how could I use these headphones with my MacBook Pro?

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
- 17-Sep-2016
- 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
- 7-Sep-2016
- 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
