No more analogue conversion. Hi def digital audio direct to your ear holes

A more likely scenario.

That's a pretty good one.

The wireless protocol will probably be proprietary and use encryption. They'll also make Lightning dongles if you're POOR and can't afford Wireless Beats.

analog jacks are ancient tech and apple is pushing the boundaries of tech

*applause*

Im still going to buy this phone because android its shit but there is really no excuse. You have no benefits from removing it.

The amount of internal space is negligible and the new iPhone is just as thick as the old one.

Are they going to remove it from iPads and macbooks as well?

Something like 'more battery, less bulk, no more messy cables'

Apple product shows are like infomercials BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE

>>56453183
Sorry but I like phones with software updates, fluid and good looking UI and fast performance.

Maybe android will have those some day, but for now ill stay on iOS.

>>56453183
Android isn't good if you're bad with tech. I recommended a Nexus phone to my parents and whenever I visit them they ask me to clear out all the malware and shit from their phones. Their last phones were iPhones and they never had issues with junkware/malware. One time an app mined all of my mom's passwords and I had to spend hours restoring every account she had.

If you use Android you have to be able to exercise good judgement. More freedom = more responsibility and all that.

>>56453256
Doubt it as well. They will sell wireless earpods for 100$+

The ones included will be lightning for sure.

Apple is digging a hole they wont be able to dig out themselves out of.

Just like people though every android OEM would be copying force touch by now, it turns out its not really a must have feature. They all want to be apple in one way or another but I doubt that this is going to become a thing.

>>56453340
Im using one right now m8.

There is also no denying that iPhones are much faster and receive software updates for much longer.

I was on iOS 9 on my iPhone 5 before moving to android earlier this year and it was working perfectly. My current phone is stuck on 5.1

And iOS does have a far superior looking UI since all the apps and interface are all consistent with each other. Its more fluid too with things like swipe to return and widgets that are actually useful. Android apps are all inconsistent, half of the devs dont even understand how MD should look like the other half look like iOS ports.

I can do pretty much anything I need both on Android or iOS but because of these things Im moving to iOS for now.

>>56453463
Everytime i've used an iphone, switching between apps has taken long and apps load slowly. and this is comparing a 6 to my lg g3.

>>56452859
>Buying planned obsolescence gimmicks
>Any year

At the very least, go for devices that are durable and provide you the functionality you need for at least 3-5 years.

Who are these people with so much free cash to spend $1000 on a new phone every 6 months. Save that money and go on a vacation or some shit.

>>56453531
Androids are all artificially obsolete in a year since they stop getting updates. Even the 2012 iPhone 5 is still iOS10 and running great.

Thats why if you can afford an iPhone its better. You can keep it for 5 years before its naturally obsolete.

I use it for dragging and dropping music, videos, and pictures between my iphone and computer without itunes, just like how it works on any other device. I also use it to install apps I've purchased but were no longer on the app store. This was when I had an iphone 3gs, not sure if that's still how it works.

They are an infomercial as far as I'm concerned, what significance does a shill company releasing their new shill model 2018 product have to the benefit of mankind? It's fanboy drumming for the new product and you have to be "exclusive" to see it in person like it actually matters to anything but apples bottom line. Its societal cancer.

I'll believe it if/when I see it.
It's nothing but press speculation and how often are those guys right?

Will the lightning connector still be at the bottom? That will be quite dumb if you use wired headphones and have the iphone in your pocket.

You could rotate the phone, but that is quite a ghetto solution.

so what are the people going to do who use one of those card readers that plug into the headphone jack?

Wires in pockets soi...

breaking out of cycles in fancy boxes so...

unleashing pandoras box so...

innovation geared towards a more creative experience

Literally how. The only way they could install APKs outside the Play Store is if they turned off the setting on their own, or if you did it for them.

>>56459845
The headphone and lightning connector are already on the bottom, and have been since the iPhone 5.

Wait until iOS 10 hits before you bury the hatchet on 3D touch. It has barely been adopted by third party developers so there really hasn't been anything to show for it yet.

Yup, and now makers of Android phones have a major selling feature over the new iPhone - the 3.5mm audio jack, alongside wireless audio capability if so desired.

Sometimes it makes sense to cut deprecated features, but this wasn't the time imo. It will bite them in the ass.

>>56452956
I don't know what hurts the most, the fact that it's not unlikely for apple to say this, or the fact that morons will eat it up without having a clue how fundamentally wrong such a statement is.

>>56461612
It wall make your daily usage a bit faster and more fluid but that is it. Theres really nothing huge about it.

>>56452859
My bet is they won't even address it.
