With the new release of the iPhone 7 Apple has gotten rid of the headphone jack. Now with headphones you can use Bluetooth or connect them with a lightning adaptor. It is also possible to get a pair of wireless headphones by Apple called Airpods which cost $159.
I am quite upset about this as many other people are as well. If I were to get the IPhone 7, I would have a very difficult time keeping up with the adaptor. Also having to pick between charging and listening to music is quite hard for some people. I guess it might have some advances like a thinner phone, but otherwise, it was quite unneeded in my opinion.

I agree, I believe not having headphones with a wire will be difficult. The wireless headphones look to be small, and if I had them, I would lose them easily.
ReplyDeleteOk this is the dumbest thing Apple has done, while yes some people may prefer wireless headphones/earbuds it doesn't mean they should just cut out the headphone jack alltogether. I have heard some rumors that there is a hidden jack where the old one was and all you have to do is drill a hole in the phone where it used to be, but i wouldn't risk it on that expensive of a phone.
ReplyDeleteI think that this is stupid that apple removed the headphone jack, people use aux cords all the time, and now people that have an iphone 7 can only use bluetooth. i think they will lose alot of customers
ReplyDeleteway to go apple. you now have many dissatisfied costumers. what were they thinking tho. why would people want to have a phone without headphone jack. i dont think id be able to cope with the iphone 7.
