BudFits Modify Apple Earbuds for Fitness

Add as a preferred source on Google

If you’ve ever taken your new iPod out for a run only to have those smooth white earbuds jostle their way out of your ears a few minutes into your pavement pounding, you’re not alone. While plenty of companies have already released aftermarket earbuds catering specifically to this problem, a new product known as BudFits allows you to salvage your existing earbuds with a simple modification.

Innovelis’ BudFits are simply flexible rubber ear loops that clip onto existing Apple earbuds, then loop over your ear to provide more support for them, the same way many aftermarket designs work. You can clip them on when it’s time to work out, then remove them before the morning commute when you would rather not have the extra bulk.

They’re also cheaper than buying a completely separate pair of headphones just for exercise. A pair runs for $8.99 to $9.99, depending on where you pick them up (Amazon has them for $8.99.) They come in three different colors: frosted clear, black, and white.

Like many Apple Home features, these features are only available to iCloud+ customers. However, at the event, Apple didn’t notify which plans will get access to these features. Today, we get the answer in the release notes of macOS Golden Gate beta 3, and you are not going to like it.

Apple did it first. Amazon is doing it now, starting with 40 million chips a year and a partner most people have never heard of.

Apple's decision to design its own chips reshaped the consumer electronics industry. Amazon may be about to make the same call, just about two decades later.

Supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reports that Amazon is preparing to shift away from externally sourced processors for its consumer electronics lineup, marking what he describes as the company's first major processor procurement change in 20 years. The transition is expected to begin in 2027.
