Live Coverage of Apple's 'See You on the 7th' iPhone 7 Event

RIP iPhone headphone jack . You will be missed.

It's funny how nobody clapped when they said they included the Lightning EarPods. Then, when the announcement of the adapter coming in the box...LOUD clapping. I think it's a good move though, coming with the adapter will alleviate a lot of people's issues with it.

 

[nikhsub1]

Heh, I think Apple knew they'd get skinned alive if they didn't include the lightning to 3.5 adapter

 

[Tech198]

What ? courage ?

When you know the port is gone from iphone, iPad is not far behind then.

 

[biscuitsxluv]

How do I charge at the same time while using EarPods?

 

[WinstonRumfoord]

How courageous of them!

 

[rjohnstone]

Courage... more like $$$

 

[neander]

the adapter is gonna cost 50 bucks separately..

 

[6836838]

Forget charging and headphone use then.

 

[jdillings]

Phil sums the reason up in one word,"Courage"....Phil's arrogance is amazing

 

[mikerudolph22]

Just search for lightning and USB type C headphones on Amazon good luck. Nothing. All headphones have 3.5mm jacks.

BUT THESE ARE SO "AFFORDABLE": https://www.jbl.com/ifa-products/REFLECT+AWARE.html ONLY $200!!!

 

[shyam09]

Courage ... didn't apple bash Samsung for bigger phones? So much for courage.

 

[trekkie604]

"courage" = no reason, we just wanted to screw with you all

Still cannot charge while headphones plugged in.

 

[keysofanxiety]

"Courageously soldered RAM in the new Mac Mini, with the same shell"

Should have peddled that one, Phil. You'd practically have had a standing ovation.

 

[BMcCoy]

Courage?

That's what losers say about mistakes...

 

[Nevaborn]

"Courage", thats the best excuse they could come up with?

What exscuse ? ... they said space is needed so they went digital. ... they are even giving you an adapter ...

 

[monstruo]

What courage!!!!!!!!!!!!! The most bollocks reason!

 

[NostromoUK]

So..how do we listen and charge at the same time? Ah..right..BUY the EarPods.

 

[tonyr6]

Hoorah! At least they're including the converter in the box.

When you lose it a replacement will cost $40. What a joke.

 

[frozencarbonite]

Analog is superior!

 

[CarlJ]

First word, "Courage".
Second, "A heart".
Third, "A brain."

 

[NewdestinyX]

If you're jailbroken at 10.0.0 like we know we have from Pangu coming -we're not gonna be able to get that update for the depth video if we're already JB.

 

[frifra]

HHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

So I cant charge my phone and listen to music on my headphones now!!!!


Great Apple

There will be another adapter for charging and listening, additionally to the other adapter and another adapter to help you adapt.

 

[Gasu E.]

Fragmentation, fragmentation, fragmentation.

Stop including different features between your phones. This sucks because I am never going to buy the plus but somehow it has super cool better features. Cheapskate Tim.

"Fragmentation" is when system version features are so different that application developers have to create specific implementations for each version. "Fragmentation" is NOT "the top version has super cool better features".

Bullcrap. Condescending bullcrap. They could have been less insulting to those of us who want the 3.5 jack. And just stop making the phone thinner.
