Rumor: Apple will include brand new earbuds with brand new iPhone

It looks like the new, smaller iPad won’t be coming out til October, but when the latest iPhone is announced later this month, it will likely also have brand new earbuds, which is something that hasn’t changed on Apple products since Apple earbuds first debuted.

Vietnamese tech site Tinhte.vn got their hands on what they claim are Apple’s next-gen earbuds, which we assume will come packaged with the iPhone 5, iPad Mini, and Apple’s other future mobile products. According to the site, the earbuds are being manufactured at a FOXCONN plant in Vietnam, which may or may not explain how they got hold of them so fast.

Tinhte initially released a video showing off the new earbuds and providing commentary, which has since been marked as private on YouTube and is no longer viewable. However, MacRumors took the time to jot down a translated transcript of the video, which described the earbuds:

The new ones are much smaller; when they are worn, they do not hurt the way earbuds do. You can see on the old ones the surface is a separate part that looks like it can be detached – not like the small surface of the new one.
