Sound quality of newer vs older earpods

[levmc]

Does the newer earpods with lighting connector have better sound quality compared to the 3.5 mm earpods?

Nope.

IMHO, In ear earpod 3.5" (with earbud) is the best ever.

I wouldn’t know. I always play music on speaker while sat at the back of the bus. I want people to know what sort of music I’m into.

I find the current ones very flat bass-wise. I don't recall the ones with the 3.5mm jack sounding as flat!
