iPhone12 leak confirmed one of the biggest rumors 1

According to the latest version of iOS 14, the iPhone 12 is losing one more accessory out of its box.

A section of text in the iOS 14.2 beta, spotted by MacRumors, discussing user exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy has had one key word removed. By itself, this is not a big deal, but other rumors suggest that the omission contains a lot of meaning.

This all hinges on the phrase "included headphones." As can be seen in the MacRumors image below, this was used in the following passage in previous versions of iOS.

In iOS 14.2, however, the same passage is written only as "headphones."

Since the text does not talk about a supply of headphones, it seems to confirm other rumors and predictions that Apple is removing the wired EarPods that are usually included in phone boxes for iPhone 12.

The iPhone 12 will reportedly not include a charger either, to cut costs and reduce electronic waste. This is similar to what Apple did with the Apple Watch 6 and Apple Watch SE. Neither of the company's two new smartwatches comes with a charging brick.

Of course, this decision to make the jump to wireless earbuds by users who rely on traditional headphones with 3.5mm or Lightning connectors will help popularize Apple's already popular AirPods and AirPods Pro earphones will also help. Some users may prefer the over-the-ear design of the AirPods Studio, which is rumored to be released later this year.

Still, what should be included is a USB-C-Lightning cable. In return for removing other accessories and to reduce waste, this cable could have a more durable braided design.

We expect the iPhone 12 series to be revealed on October 13 and Apple's new AirTags tracker. iPhone 12 will be available in four different models, either 5.4", 6.1", or 6.7" depending on what you choose.

All new iPhone 12 models will feature the A14 Bionic chipset, 5G support, OLED displays, and the two iPhone 12 Pro should offer more storage and a telephoto camera. the LiDAR depth sensor will be the largest may be limited to the iPhone 12 Pro Max.
