73RR4N, 02 Oct 2018Yeah so meizu 16 can make the phone as thin as 7.3mm, inclu... moreI totally agree with you. The headphone jack could have been the best feature of OnePlus phones besides the software and value. OnePlus is falling down and maybe they will reconsider the headphone jack for the 7 if sales would drastically fall which is possible but not likely.

    It doesn't matter because more people will accept wireless Bluetooth headphones.

    Wireless charging and waterproofing is alao overrated to me. Wireless charging will kill the battery's health faster because of the overheat. I also prefer a metal back over a glass one. I rarely swim and live in a dry climate where it rarely rains to care about water-resistance.

      I believe it. It is relatively new technology and they want to minimize risks

        Yeah so meizu 16 can make the phone as thin as 7.3mm, include in-display reader AND a headphone jack, but one plus with the bigger budget somehow can't.
