  1. I think if it uses a lightning cable, it sorts of defeats the purpose of
    going wireless and having that w1 chip…. isn’t it? They said it, the
    future is wireless. I guess the micro USB is just there because it’s so
    common everyone has it. Although Beats is owned by Apple they cannot just
    alienate all the non-Apple consumers like that I guess.

    • the w1 chip, think of it like a proprietary apple bluetooth that’s a lot
      more efficient and faster than standard bluetooth 4.1
