RIP 3.5mm Jack – The End of an Era?

We need to talk about the headphone jack—specifically, what happened to it. Once a universal feature, something we all took for granted, and then—bam—it vanished. The iPhone 7 started the trend, but now, it feels like every smartphone brand has followed suit.

💡 So, why did the 3.5mm headphone jack disappear?

Was it really about better audio quality?

Or just a sneaky way to sell more wireless earbuds?

Apple called it "courage," but was there a hidden agenda?

I bought one of the realme phones last month. Still has the headphone jack and microsd card. Also I disagree about the e waste thing because almost all of the cheap wiredcheadphones I had would stop working in 6-8 months. While my cheap wireless redmi earphones have lasted me for the last 4 years

still rocking the dongle. Thankfully apple provides decent audio quality from those dongles but its still no excuse to make phones that are as heavy and thick as a brick and not provide something so essential

I bought Motorola phone

One of the best decisions i made
