It's been a total non-issue for me. Since the iPhone 7 comes with both the adapter and Lighting headphones work/home usage isn't a problem. I just use the adapter + existing headphones at home and the Lighting headphones at work.
- _Codemonkeyism 10y agoThe adapter will go away in the future, it's just a technology to get people on the jackless train. I'm sure iPhone 8 will no longer support it.
- CountSessine 10y agoThat's sort of what I found. I thought it was going to be a major inconvenience because I don't like talking directly on a phone without headphones and a mic. It turns out that what I really don't like is having a conversation on a Samsung phone with the consistently awful earpieces Samsung puts in them (Note 4, S4, Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S...). I've been pretty happy with the iPhone 7 earpiece. My plea to Samsung: you guys make killer displays; couldn't you figure out how to make an earpiece that isn't awful?
