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.

--- Quote from: Reddit ---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
