i don't think it'll happen for awhile but it will eventually happen, it makes engineering easier and once usb-c headphones become more commonplace i can see it not being a big deal anymore

LG will probably keep it for awhile along with google's pixels. samsung will probably drop it in 2-4 years. i'm personally already making the move to bluetooth so after awhile personally it wouldn't matter to me

It's a touch sensitive strip that replaces your function row keys, so that when the computer freezes up or whatever or you need to access them, you can't anymore

Would probably work on me tbh

I like having both bluetooth and audio jacks and am willing to suffer the crushing indignity of a phone that is 0.01mm thicker as a result

they're already doing this for their usb-c chargers

the charger itself costs $69 nicedollars. it doesn't come with a cable, and your $1000 laptop also doesn't come with an extension cable like they used to
