Apple EarPods (Lightning Connector) EarPods with Lightning Connector No box. I used iPods, so I haven't used these much. Overview Unlike traditional, circular earbuds, the EarPods are designed based on the geometry of the ear. For many people, they will feel more comfortable than other earbud-style headphones. The speakers inside the EarPods are engineered to maximize sound output, so you can enjoy excellent sound quality. The EarPods (Lightning Connector) also have a built-in remote control, allowing you to adjust the volume, control music and video playback, and answer and end calls with the press of a button.
