If thats true then ill never be buying one, i have a great pair of hd 25 sennheiser headphone and no way im paying for another set that i dont need.

JackClark

Those headphones do look awesome, but do you really plug them into your phone? I'm pretty sure they come with a 3.5 to 6.5 adaptor already, one more won't hurt

Welcome back Jack

JackClark

Shining a positive light since 2000 with a few breaks to make the mods feel powerful.

dpb

Theres no fooking point anway , theres no radio

one of those extras you pay for

JackClark

There's no Teasmade either, what ******* making you pay extra for tea.

Tidgy

wow where you been jack, everything ok?

JackClark

Got banned for asking where I can steal things, others were at it so I did too. That was disrespecting the Mod's time apparently. 3 months, you get less for feeling up a German.

Lol only in the house(use them for djing great quality) if im out and about then use the apple ones still think its poor they will remove the jack as also plug into aux in the truck at work.

dpb

I don't think ANYONE is going to naturally expect a teasmaid on board mobile phone

JackClark

It's all just clickbait at the moment, there are however benefits if they do, power for noise cancelling headphones and digital come to mind. Maybe they'll go with USB-C bit too fat though.

JackClark

If Android does it then so should iOS right?

One presumes that if this happens, there will be a 3.5mm to lightning adapter available (doubt it'll ship with a new phone though) to allow to use your existing headphones with the lightning only phones.

One also presumes that new headphones will come with an adapter as well, otherwise they are limiting what you can use them with.

Having read a little, it seems that power from the phone can be used, so the headphones could feature noise cancelling tech, powered by the phone, rather than having to charge the headphones themselves.

I recall reading somewhere that one of the remaining limits when it comes to the thickness of the phone is the 3.5mm headphone jack, so to get a thinner phone (if you really need one) you need to do something about that, and your options are limited.

Do you not see the difference between appreciating a product and being a fanboy?

I have to think this is an elaborate plan to troll people, either you're smart and sat there laughing at us .. or you really have lost it.

JackClark

I think you're a ****, sensational clickbait title, link to a comedy site, nothing better to do with your time.

I see great benefits in something other than 100 year old tech, if you really want to be stuck in the past how about not having a mobile phone at all, wait till you get home and use the land line, that way you'll have less to moan about.

Surely its just a new lead, I have Beats studio and it is just a new lead for those to plug into a new port.

dpb

if id attempted to look at this on iPhone 4g id probably been whisked off to some serious advertising and then direct to apple app store

without even clicking anything at all !

JackClark

Never happens to anyone I know, never, you should talk to your mobile data provider, sounds like they're injecting malicious advertising.

dpb

its happened to stevebt on here , the other side of America !

dpb

youre taken straight off to willam hill betting app

Sweet.

JackClark

No, no I'm not. Have you installed a content blocker yet?

dpb

Don't tell me , there's an ( undoubtedly paid for ) app for that

JackClark

You can block content without an app, but it's very boring.

Jesus you really are an Apple ***** .. you actually believe they are doing it for the benefit of the masses.

Add in insulting me for having an option.. brilliant.

JackClark

Nothing to do with Apple, if you posted about Google in the same fashion I'd still think you were a ****. What's super amusing is in one sentence you berate me for having an opinion then in the next moan about the same thing.

And yes, I do think replacing something with something better is beneficial.
