These seem to be good reasons for the alleged move by Apple. My personal experience has always been horrible with 3.5mm jack especially on the connector side. My Android phone is already huge and it almost sticks out of my pocket. Add the height of a headphone connector to it (some are huge) and you have to be surgical when taking the phone out of your pocket and putting it back in. I'm actually looking forward to a well built, long lasting, high quality audio bluetooth adapter that I can plug my headphones to. I won't mind recharging the adapter and considering that Android 6 phones can charge other devices, this isn't as bad as it sounds.
