Geez. I have probably a dozen pairs of headphones (several high end studio types too) at this time and all of them have provisions for cables. Two of them are convertible bluetooth with optional cable as well types.
Am I concerned about the new phone possibly not having this jack? No, because Apple will have thought this through.
If it is an adapter, it will probably be something nobody anticipated and the "wah, I can't charge and listen to music simultaneously" issue will be addressed since the charging will most likely be wireless.
I see the vast majority of the people upset about the new phone is that it resembles the last two generations of the same model and also resembles previous versions. Complaints about antenna bands and protruding camera lenses. Most of you will be using this thing with a case on it so the bands and the camera lens is not going to be a problem.
You gotta admit, that Galaxy S7 is a sharp looking phone.
Apple is kind of running into an issue like they did with the G5 / Mac Pro aluminum towers - "familiarity breeds contempt" - it had been that form factor so long people started resenting the familiar. And nobody anticipated the trashcan design.
So, maybe not the next iPhone will be "new" in design but likely the one after that. I kind of wish they had a dark blue case though.
