Apple quietly releases shorter Lightning cable, new earbuds



Apple today quietly put out new variants of its Lightning cable and in-ear headphones.


The new Lightning cable is .5 meters long, half the length of the one that ships in Apple's latest iOS gadgets, and what's currently Apple's top seller. Despite the shorter length, both of those cables cost $19.


The other change is a bit more minor, with Apple adding its larger, fat finger friendly remote to its $79 in-ear headphones. Apple changed up its design on that remote with its EarPods last September (see CNET's review of those here).


It's not unusual for Apple to make small tweaks to its products mid-lifecycle without too much fanfare. Yesterday the company released an updated version of its
MacBook Pro with Retina Display, lowering the price of its models as well as the cost of upgrades to higher SSD capacities.
