As we anxiously await the release of the new iPhone 7, rumours are flying around about the design changes that will also inform the launch of a new line of accessories/peripherals.

Apple is expected to announce new products (including the iPhone 7) on September 7, and have them in stores a week or so later. If you’re planning to upgrade, sit tight on accessorizing – especially as it concerns wired earbuds and phone cases.


WHY? USB-C
With the MacBook, Apple started its slow changeover to USB-C. There’s even a USB-C to Lightning cable, which indicated that things were bound to change.

The new MacBook Pros, which are long overdue, are also rumored to go the USB-C route. If that’s accurate, and we’d have to believe it is, it changes quite a bit for the average consumer.
At that point, Apple is basically turning its entire ecosystem over to USB-C and Lightning. It is a GOOD thing but potential buyers should exercise caution on buying anything Apple-related yet.


APPLE SWITCHING TO USB-C PROBABLY CHANGES EVERYTHING
Accessory makers have also been slowly migrating to USB-C connectivity. Once Apple goes all in on USB-C, expect everything to change too – earbuds, phone cases, battery packs, chargers etc.

Even if you don’t plan upgrading your iPhone for another year, buying accessories at this point might be a short-term bet except it is highly necessary.

Just save your money and wait till September 7 for the official update.
