Daily reminder that 3.5mm audio jack is why phones are still

Oh wait...they aren't thick at all. They are actually thin as fuck and pretty much the perfect size.

World's thinnest smart phone, Vivo X5 Max still has a Headphone jack

Was apple's intention to make the phone thinner?

>Was apple's intention to make the phone thinner?
This is what /g/ likes to think.
Apple says it was to improve water-proofing.

Its got another speaker. Im waiting on the first portless phone with wireless charging.

>>56521297
No, that's bullshit.
It's a marketing stunt.

>Apple says it was to improve water-proofing.

Wow that's a good one.

Everyone knows it's a money grab so they can sell their $160 wireless headphones.

>>56519573
Of course.
What do you think the next step of their master plan is?

To crash their stock...with no survivors.

>>56521627

>>56521627
>1 day

Why are you trying so hard?

>>56521689
iPhone 7 has only been announced for 1 day...

>>56521419
The taptic shit wasn't going to be enough of a change in addition to single thread dual core shit that eats up battery life and will probably never be used outside of benchmarks.

They needed something that would get them the free press they rely on.

>>56521702
exactly.

Wait little before taking any conclusions

>>56521627
It's 2% in one day, fampai...

>>56521297
Uh huh, sure, except the iphone 7 is NOT waterproof, it's only water resistant and you can go right now on the iphone 7 page itself at apple's website so you can be greeted by a nice message telling you that they will not be held responsible for ANY kind of water damage.

This phone is outdated hot garbage.

>>56522060
So 50 days until they hit 0%?

>>56519516
No they're way too fucking thin.
Heavy technology feels much better in the hand and is more pleasing.
Only gay hipster weener suckers like THIN phones.

>>56522086
>>56522086
hure ddyhurrrr

>>56522090

Heavy no.

Bulky enough to hold in your hand comfortably? Yes.

Light phones won't damage as easily in a fall either.

>>56521297
That's retarded we've had water proofed jacks for years. Even the 6 has some bit of resistance. It's the speaker membranes that'll be a bigger point of entry.

Apple's new iPhones -- the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus -- don't have the headphone jack. The company's SVP Phil Schiller said the move signifies "courage" from the company to put a 100-year-old audio standard to bed. But there could be one more reason for this transition to a Bluetooth/Wireless headphones future: it owns the largest Bluetooth headphones company -- Beats. The Verge reports:
More likely is that the lack of a headphone jack on the iPhone -- and increasingly, on Android phones as well -- will lead to an uptick in sales of Bluetooth headphones. And it just so happens that Apple owns the number one Bluetooth headphone company, Beats. Beats brings in more revenue from Bluetooth headphones than LG, Bose, or Jaybird, according to NPD figures released in July. In terms of unit sales, it controls over a quarter of the Bluetooth headphone market. Bluetooth headphones are also disproportionately profitable among headphones. NPD has them accounting for 54 percent of all dollars spent in the market, despite representing only 17 percent of units sold in the U.S.. These headphones sell at high prices with high margins, and Apple's company is making the best of it so far. Sales of Bluetooth headphones are already growing, with units up 64 percent year over year according to NPD's US figures. And Apple's removal of the headphone jack is likely to give them another boost.

My 256GB Jet Black 7+ is coming in November. Good thing it's waterproof. Gotta swim through all the Android tears ;)

RIP Steve Jobs

>>56522428
Yeah, go take that puppy for a swim since it's waterproof.

>>56522405
spoken like a true shill, how much does apple pay you to troll 4chan/g/???

>>56522493
Retard detected. Do you really think apple would post here? You're a fucking idiot. We prefer communities where people can gather and acknowledge the more advanced products that apple makes. So zip it and eat a bag of dicks

To be fair, apple were the first to drop floppy.
Apple fans of the time were praising it as revolutionary.
This is exactly what will happen now, accept it.

>Shiller

Who uses their phone for music anyway?

>>56522609
the kinds of idiots that stare at their phones all day, walking down the sidewalk bumping in to people and things because they cant take their fucking eyes off their phone for a minute to watch where they are walking and whats worse is when they phone freaks get behind the wheel of a car, you can tell because they always drive a little slower, have their head bend down looking at something, and when at a stop light you have to honk the horn at them when the light turns green because the idiots are too busy playing with their god damned phones, and i can just imagine all the accidents they cause

>>56522609
You can't be serious

>>56522669
What does that have to do with listening to music that outputs from your phone?
