Samsung said to remove the 3.5mm jack from the Note10 and Galaxy S11

10 October 2018
It's never too early for a spicy rumor but this time it might be.

Sort by:

As long as they don't put a useless notch and also remove the micro SD slot (which I use every day, 256gb SD card is so useful) is all fine. I'm planning on getting the next s10 and it seems it will feature the jack anyway, so I don't have to worry till 2021 lol

      If they're gonna remove the 3.5mm jack, I do hope they would include a triple sim slot (2 sim cards & 1 dedicated microsd card). When travelling, having to remove your sd card to use a local sim is quite annoying.

          It was an idiotic decision in the first place. The other manufacturers should be bringing it back.

                Good job samsung. Like... Just because wireless headphones are getting popular, you have to remove jack? I mean, wireless earbdus wont work when it is a headphone jack in a phone?

                  A smart Shooter, 10 Oct 20185. Tell the Samsung fans no 3.5mm jack for Note 10. And that. XD

                          Kiyasuriin, 10 Oct 2018The question is if that fiio supports flac or wav, and will... moreYes, they can. Visit their site.

                            Hot topic due the high amount of comments. But I certainly hope they will keep the 3.5mm headphone jack. If not, I will really reconsider purchasing the Note10 if I will at all, since the Note8 is a phone for me that should last at least 2 years and perhaps even more. My target is to use a phone at least 3 years so not sure if I will buy a Note10 at all. But 3.5mm, please keep that!

                              Fun fact:
                              Did you know that phrase:
                              "Non emere non headphone eum asinum"
                              (No headphone jack no buy)
                              was first spoken in Ancient Rome during the Flavian dynasty in 68 AD.

                                Ever since Apple originally killed the headphone jack, every other brand has been killing it one by one. This year even a brand with the slogan "Never Settle" got rid of it. So why are you surprised by Samsung (and soon LG) to kill it as well? It was imminent.

                                Remember, you can always use a dongle to connect your favorite 3.5mm headphones if you have to. You can also use a wireless charger if you want to "charge while listening to music". ;)

                                  Well, ignore the wireless thing. If this happened I will stay with wired earphone regardless even if it mean I need dongle or buy a usb c type earphone. End of story.
