"Smartphone makers, including apple, Samsung and Xiaomi, hope to bundle their new models with their own TWS earplugs next year," the report quoted unnamed industry sources as saying "TWS" or "real wireless stereo" earphones include earphones such as airpods and Samsung's Galaxy pads.
Apple has already included a basic wired earpods with a lightning interface in the iPhone's box, which has been going on for years. The headset costs less to make and is officially priced at just $29.
Although the current rumor seems doubtful, Apple may also think it's time to add something more modern to its iPhone than the earpods. After all, Apple's airpods are the world's best-selling real wireless headphones, and selling them together with the iPhone will expand the sales of new iPhones. If the news is true, apple is expected to bundle Apple's airpods with high-end iPhone 12 Pro models for sale.
