    This is seriously funny. Taking off the jack port. To save space for what? The only reason is to sell more stuff (headphones, earbuds) ... and the markup $$$ on headphones and earbuds is HUGE. They cost nothing to make. Remember the real cost of BEAT headphones? Its something like 14$ and they're selling em 350$ Apple is innovating to make more cash.

    • Let me tell you a secret, these companies are in this to make money :)yuekit
    • But it's also a natural progression, and you will probably see Android devices doing the same in spite of the backlash.yuekit
    • There is no way any android hardware will EVER ditch the 3.5 mm headphone port. That would be the most idiotic move ever. Apple proved that.monospaced
    • If anything they'll keep it for the next 20 years at least to prove the point while apple is forced to shut doors because of it.monospaced
    • Of course this savings is passed on to any android customer and always will be.monospaced
    • Thing is, nobody wants wireless only headphones. Just watch. This is the end for Apple, all because of greed and nothing... NOTHING else AT ALL.monospaced
    • I think we all know it will happen eventually, well done Apple for getting the ball rolling (against Jobs wishes).fadein11
    • of course it will, but based on the reaction in this thread alone, you'd think the very idea was worse than raping a childmonospaced
    • nobody will bother to mention the many benefits of the decision either, because talking shit about a company you hate is obviously the cool thing these daysmonospaced
    • holy shit, is it just me, or are there more android haterz going nuts in the apple thread than anyone else? so bizarremonospaced
    • Apple is supposedly working on wireless charging as wellyuekit
    • but wireless charging is already out, and undoubtedly on a phone already, so when Apple integrates it it'll be stolen, or catching upmonospaced
    • haha. I don't really care tbh. got the stuff I like. As I have said before those Apple events wind people up - embarrassing.fadein11
    • me either, tbh, and I too find the android crew getting triggered in this thread to be pure entertainmentmonospaced
