Pixel 1 release: See it has a headphone jack, unlike the iPhone 7, it is more feature packed

About time. Samsung kept the world back with its insistence in supporting legacy tech. Finally we'll get even more choice in usb-c / wireless accessories.
Fanboys won't like it. But then again fanboys never like what's best for them.

I just listen my music through Spotify, so it's okay to remove the 3.5mm jack (IMO).
People will forget and move on from it just like removeable battery.

I never use the one on my 9, thinking about it, didn't on my 8 either. Use Bluetooth for everything. Less tangle too.

"The reasoning behind this is that wireless headphones are becoming increasingly popular and according to Strategy Analytics, the global wireless earphone market will expand by 73.9 million units by 2019 and over 100 million in 2022. That's around 42% growth in three to four years."
That's BS probably bribed by (Cr)Apple. Did Strategy Analytics "traveled" to the future??

How about leaving the jack and those who want to use wireless head phones can and others can use wired head phones.

F*** you Samsung for "officially" joining Apple's "COURAGE" cult next year!! Once you're in, you can't go out unless you are brave like HTC did with U12 Life with a 3.5mm jack.
