for real though, killing the headphone port is a REALLY bad idea and i'm curious to see how users handle it we complain about stuff like the camera bulge, but those are all nitpicky nerd complaints - removing the headphone jack is a seriously huge thing that actually affects usability Polo-Rican fucked around with this message at 22:24 on Jul 11, 2016 |

there will be a lightning to 3.5mm adapter thing that you pop in the bottom and it will be fine

you're already plugging a cable in to the thing. having a single universal port instead of two is better. stop having stupid thoughts.

yeah a lot of idiots got really mad about the 30-pin to lightning change and that one was actually a good idea, this one could be a bloodbath the snarky Samsung counter-ad writes itself

even better, the 3.5mm jack is used for more than audio. for instance the lovely card swiper square uses

The phones are already too thin. if you put it on the bottom so all the cables are on the same side youre hogging up space that could be used for better/larger speaker drivers, put it on the top and you're spreading the ports all over for no good reason and messing with the layout of the internals. slapping a small 3.5mm to lightning adapter on to the end of your headphone cable is a good concession to make if it means retaining the form factor and improving embedded speaker performance

Hope you like carrying a lightning to 3.5 and a separate lightning to 3.5 with charge pass thru cables the official solution will be to plug the headphones into the computer and install itunes (lol) so you can make the computer into a dongle.

let's not get too hasty here, i can see the advantages of not having a headphone jack with regards to waterproofing you can't destroy a phone with water if it never leaves your house or car or even the store where you didn't buy it
