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?

CraigTayIorKappaClaus Take away one of the biggest reasons people use an iPhone.. gj Apple
iPhone = Phone.
If you want to listen to music, go buy an iPod. If you use headphones for talking on the phone, start using it up to your ear, or speaker phone.
iPod = Music
Or, you combine the 2 and have a better product?
A phone without a headphone jack is completely pathetic. If Apple take it away, what utter plebians they are.
It's the one thing i use on my phone all day everyday.
I couldn't agree more with you.
I like how they combined both. I also use my phone for music everyday when I'm in class.
And using headphones to talk is a lot better because I used to be a gamer and the struggle of holding your phone to your ear and playing games at the same time is difficult.

I love the idea of a bigger battery and how it's water proof. But it is dumb because you could just get a life proof case and if you want more batter your could get a lifeproof/mophiecase.
I do not like the idea of having to buy something to listen to my music. It's stupid. I will not be wanting this new phone and I wouldn't be surprised if the sales went even lower.

That's totally fake. Unless apple just became stupid as ****. There's no way they would take away the headphone jack. Sales would plummet. A lot of people buy iphones just for the convenience of having your music on your phone. Personally I'm a bigger fan of Galaxy phones.

I think that it will have the headphone jack. Wireless headphones have not quite taken off yet, still to many problems with them.

Was going to get the Iphone 7 but if it doesn't come with a headphone jack then I definitely won't be.

Makes sense.. it is Apple. I don't understand why anyone who knows anything about tech continues to support this company.
