HTC desire HD was the only HTC phone I've owned. This company just doesn't seem to make any sense to me. They should try making universal remote controls or something.

                  This is a terrible trend. Apple can afford to this do. HTC isn't very hot right now, they already charge too much for their phones (and the unspectacular upcoming the Pixel phones), now without headphone jack, they are going to lose more customers.

                    Shazzy B, 22 Sep 2016I'm usually just concerned about the sound quality, which i... moreah oki :) yeah its the same here. i bought mine so i can listen to music on the airplane and not struggle with cables. without being disturbed by the loud airplane sound, that kills the sound through the headset following the phones.

                      Zenodroid, 22 Sep 2016their new noise cancelling ones ? I'm usually just concerned about the sound quality, which is great, but the noise isolation is good, since I'm currently using the wired versions, the XB950AP set.

Unless Samsung Gear series comes in the box. Gear Circle, Samsung Level or Gear IconX. One of those need to be freebies for them to get rid of the ear jack. If not, the answer is a big NO!

                            Fair play to HTC. They can also see that Bluetooth headsets outsold wired headsets last year & are moving with the times!

                            Also, FANDROIDS, don't forget that yes, Apple was rumoured to be removing the 3.5mm jack, Motorola/Lenovo where the first to ACTUALLY remove it!

                              Looks exactly the same as the HTC 10? This will flop, wtf is HTC doing here?

                              Stick to one per year HTC!!! FFS, Two at max.

                                All these behaviours will make apple right on removing 3.5mm jack. How stupid pr departments of these companies.

                                      Unless they can fit even better internals to replace the space left by the missing jack, then its a rather wasted exercise anyway.
