If it's included in the box, they're still selling the adapter: it's just that they're selling it as part of the purchase price of the phone+adapter combination

- jbrambleDC 10y agothe purchase price that is the same as the ihpone 6s was?
- zeveb 10y agoYes, the purchase price which could be $x cheaper. TANSTAAFL!
- hinkley 10y agoSpeaking of TANSTAAFL, what's your brilliant plan to fit the headphone jack into the phone body without raising the price of the phone?
- mixedCase 10y ago>what's your brilliant plan to fit the headphone jack into the phone body without raising the price of the phone? Good chinese engineering seems enough: http://androidadvices.com/top-5-thinnest-designed-android-smart-phones/#toph2_1 http://androidadvices.com/top-5-thinnest-designed-android-sm... iPhone 7 is 7.1mm thick while the 7 Plus is 7.3mm thick. And yes, aaaaaall of those have headphone jacks. Apple is taking you people for fools.
- Mithaldu 10y agoThere are in fact at least 22 phones that are substantially thinner than iphones, yet have an audio jack: http://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?nThicknessMax=6&chk35mm=selected http://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?nThicknessMax=6&chk35mm...
- hinkley 10y agoI don't know about your phone, but mine has two other dimensions besides depth. How much internal volume do those take up?
- surge 10y agoAnd now I have a tiny adapter I have to keep track of that will get lost, bent, and need replaced, and probably damage the port and I have an extra long fulcrum sticking out into a tiny little shallow port that when pressed will either snap or snap the port internally from it's soldering, requiring a trip to the Apple store for repair. This is just bad design/engineering based on Apple wanting to sell licensed headphone adapaters/headphones that only work with the iPhone or maybe Mac's in the future.
