Sorry but 3.5mm audio jack have nothing to do with thickness of phone, phone can be 5mm thick AND STILL have audio jack.
Not to mention that one time I bought 3.5mm connector for my DIY project and it had 4.5x4.3mm size so it give phone manufactures loot of space for phone case taking in to the account that they can remove this plastic case of this connector and put it directly on motherboard/frame
Also there is a line when phone cant be too thin, 6-7 is minimum for phone for me, and to be honest I have no problem if phone have 8-9mm as far as there is good battery size-thickness ratio

[deleted post]apple is very lucky to have such stupid fans thinking they can accept any dump changes just for a premium priced midrange device. They even think it has good innovation and good software, really the luckiest brand in the world. all other brands should be jealous

Right approach, may be, because i dont use my headphone jack as i use an NFC enabled headset but not every product is Bluetooth/NFC enabled right now so i'd say it is a bit early.

Doesn't matter. Even if it has no audio jack, a pathetic battery, no SD slot, no water resistance, restrictions over restrictions... The main thing is that it is an Apple. It will sell in millions. MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHH

Anonymous, 05 Jan 2016It won't, bc apple fanboys are dumb and will puchase ... it... moreAfter using the case for a while, it's design is actually user focused, it's extremely comfortable and you hardly notice it, at first I hated the baby bump, but it grows on you (excuse the pun) lo Trust me when I initially seen it, I freaked out, all kinds of upset, buuut it's not terrible.

it's funny to see all these comments about how you charge your phone while listening music, do you guys really think that the biggest and most successful company in the world haven't though this thing if they really remove the the 3.5mm jack? :D C'mon

I can see where this is going. Only headphones that will use a proprietary "Apple only" implemenation of Bluetooth will work, which, of course, will be grossly overpriced of course. As usual Apple are really in to open standards and embrace them, just as long as they are their own and then gain money from them.
How long before they start claiming they invented "wire free" headphones or bluetooth and demanding everyone pay them to use them and pay retrospectively, of course?

This has to happen someday, eventually phones are just thin as credit card.
The fact is that 3.5mm is very outdated and old tech and way too big for these new kind of devices and where they are going, it takes too much room, and if you can ditch it completely why not.
It will hurt for some time, just like lighting port did for some, but eventually its better than the old way. Lots of big headphone companies are already in for making those lightning headphones.
