The 3.5 mm audio jack might disappear earlier than expected

[Redaktion]

Since the latest iPhone and the HTC Bolt, Moto Z, or the latest LeEco smartphones dropped this old connector, it would not be a surprise to see all high-end handsets abandon it by the end of the year.

I actually wont buy a new phone without 3.5mm jack.
No matter what.

I dont know about everyone but for me this is a no go.

yeah like apple would be always right - like with their ingenious decision to develop their own powerpc chips, which kept them years behind other pcs until they switched to intel processors in the early 2000s.

i wont buy a phone that does not support 3,5 cables and headphones. all the top notch headphones have a manual connector.
