the google pixel 2 won't have a headphone jack

Google is resisting the industry trend of dual rear cameras, but it's not resisting the inexplicable industry conspiracy to kill the headphone jack.

god damnit, and so the trend of removing a perfectly useful and flawless feature from phones continues
edit: as for how i feel about wireless headphones, bluetooth / wireless headphones still have several disadvantages over wired headphones, and until they can be as cheap as wired headphones, have a battery that lasts at least a month without charging, have as good sound quality as wired headphones and have absolutely 0 latency im not going to use them often.

Are you loving kidding? is a mentally handicapped person making these ideas up??

Not saying this is the absolute reason, but...

I wonder if LG deliberately gimped the Pixel 2 XL so we would be forced to by the LG V30 which has the jack and more.

Certainly an interesting theory.

Iphone 11 revealed to have no I/O ports whatsoever; the phone is simply thrown away when the battery runs out. each unit costs $1,500

iphone 13; it's just a block which randomly ignites every 5 - 5621.55 minutes. there is no way to disable the ignition feature as the screen has been removed for taking too much space on the phone chassis

don't care about phone games or cameras.
just care about headphones, calling, and messaging.
