Why are people still fighting the headphone issue? Whatever Apple says they made a decision to get rid of it not for the sake of the user but to sell more gadgets to the user. As long as they make a marginal profit with the new headphones vs the old headphone port ones they will not go back. Given that most people aren't protesting by not buying the new phones then Apples has no reason to go back on their decision. Yup, in a few years, the port will be as rare as vacuum tubes in electronics.
Nope, the port is not coming back. It's best to accept that and move on.

- walterbell 8y agoIt's rumored to be returning to iPhones via in-display sensor, as that technology matures.
- zapzupnz 8y agoI doubt the technology matters to Apple anymore. They've found a better solution and have already made their stance clear that Face ID is the future for iOS devices.
