Can't wait to see what happens, maybe some new headphones with the new iPhones?

I don't want Beats headphones if they play the bass too loud. I'm not a Hip Hopper.

I don't want Beats headphones in general. I love my EarPods. :(

I have never used the Apple EarPods, their still in the box. I use my BOSE. I wonder if the Beats earbuds will be better than the Apple ones.

Well I'd assume so. Heck, it's Beats, I'd expect as much.

Just because it's Beats and expensive, doesn't mean they sound better.
