Another source claims iPhone 7 will be without headphone jack
It's becoming more likely that the iPhone 7 is not going to include the mainstream 3.5mm jack - the same jack that you use for your headphones, inline mics, speakers, etc. The possibility of this major omission first broke back in November and has been now been reinforced through another unnamed source. The headphone jack would be erased and all connected devices requiring the 3.5mm jack would have to have a Thunderbolt adapter to plug in.
With the next iPhone likely another eight months away from being announced, we are forced to take these reports with some skepticism. Apple won't talk about any of its plans this far ahead, but it's clear to see that killing off the 3.5mm jack would allow for the iPhone to be slimmer, possibly waterproof and offer more space for other components to grow (like a battery). This new source is sworn to be rock-solid and is adamant that the next iPhone is doing away with headphone jack. If so, how are iPhone owners going to feel about being forced to purchase an adapter to connect things like headphones, speakers and car stereos?

-CorgiJRMHFriskyPandaUnD3aD_Stealth Honestly why would you but it if you can't listen to music?
If you actually know how to read it says it would connect through the thunderbolt connector.
But why would anyone waste money on a damn adapter? So, like Stealth said, why would anyone buy it if you can't listen to music?
They better release a version with a headphone jack or they're going to miss out on sales lol.
Considering their phones come with headphones now, it goes to show that it will come with the adapter.
By your logic, why would anyone buy the phone if you would need to buy headphones... Either way, you'd have to purchase something to listen to music through earphones.
"based on my logic" people already own earphones, and it would be f/cking retarded to waste money on an adapter JUST to USE earphones.

I don't understand why people create a shitstorm over this, until Apple publicly announce this why doesn't everyone just take a seat and eat a cookie until they say something..
