Apple had removed the headphone jack on the iPhone 7, not only on the iPhone X.But Apple has removed the headphone jack not because HTC did, but because of the new edge to edge display on the new iPhone X ! Difference, yes!

What are you on about? The entire internet was making fun of Apple for removing the jack. Thousands of memes going on for months and months. Hell, years! Everyone remembers it.

Apple also bundled it for one generation. Let’s see next year if Samsung still bundles it.
Man, I knew this would eventually happen, but that happens so close to their annoying commercials last year about the “double dongle”. This is just funny. And this is their “pro” device.

They didn’t stop until the Xs/Max/R.
*Note - 8/8+/X does not ship with them now either. They removed them last September when they stopped shipping them in the XS/Max/R boxes. So 2 years they shipped it.

The 7 series did as well as the following year with the 8/8+/X.

hahahahahahahahahaha! Samsung is now a dongle company that sells phones? hahahahaha. what goes around........
Yeah... Plus most are already listening to compressed music anyway, even with wired headphones, so it's not like high fidelity sound is all that important to the general consumer.
that literally makes no sense. they are wireless, you put your phone on the charger, and listen while walking around the house with your wireless headphones

I think the industry disagrees with you. High fidelity is provided by Apple via AAC from its Music store, and Spotify delivers their version of high quality. Qualcomm provides aptx and aptx HD. All high end compressed formats today are better than CD quality. There are uncompressed formats available, but you have to claim to have uber hearing to even want to use those. (not having uber hearing myself, I am simply skeptical that people can actual discern a difference, those who claim uber hearing, well maybe they actually can)

demand must be low. Mine cam with an iPhone X and remain unused.
What are me and my headphones going to do?
Looks like I'll have to snatch the Marshall phone with 2 headphone jacks.
Here's hoping at least the regular S line or e phones will keep the jack.
When the iPhone 7 was announced with no headphone jack I thought it was a bad idea because I’d use wired headphones a lot while charging, but then I simply upgraded to Bluetooth headphones and legitimately haven’t thought about the headphone jack since.
Lol, someone is here for a pissing match. It’s so old and anyone can bring up small things one does over the other at this point. How’s your phone compared to Apple’s A12? Still slower? K. How’s your “facial recognition” that is both slower and less secure than Face ID? Worse? K.
See? Anyone can do it and it’s still annoying.
if it’s that big of a deal to you, then take his loss and stick around. Apple will do something stupid in a minute and you can puff your chest there.
El Oh El. So now that’s a valid reason. Got it.

Note 10: 7.9mm thick (PhoneArena Specs)
XS/XS Max: 7.7mm thick (Apple)

Just use the dongle if it’s a case of life or death. Why are people so reluctant to use an adaptor do plug in a cable?
Awesome. I always wanted the ability to run two Fisher Price Android Apps side-by-side.

Don't worry, you're not alone. The Note isn't flying off the shelves - it's always been a niche product. Now even more so.
The jack was removed from the 7, not X. Its purpose is to make us transition to wireless accessories.But Apple has removed the headphone jack not because HTC did, but because of the new edge to edge display on the new iPhone X ! Difference, yes!
