After the announcement of the iPhone 7 there was a flurry of amusing Tweets about the new £160 “AirPod” cordless earphones and the fact that phone has got rid of the headphone socket. Here are my person favourites.
First of all reaction to the new earbuds…
.@TwopTwips help Apple pay their massive Euro tax bill by paying £160 for some earphones.

And then the reaction to the lack of the headphone socket…

However, possibly the most cringe-worthy part of the whole announcement, was Apple insisting that it had taken “courage” to remove the headphone socket. That didn’t go down well.
Courage. D-Day. Moon landing. Removing the headphone port.
