... without the headphone connector.
- PunksATawnyFill 7y agoYep. Nothing epitomizes Ive’s war on usefulness better than music-centric devices with no audio outputs. What a “genius.”
- threeseed 7y agoiPhone has two external audio outputs: Lightning and Bluetooth. And you can get adapters for both to connect them to legacy headphones.
- starsinspace 7y ago„Legacy“ headphones? They are just... headphones. I’m sure that long after Bluetooth has become an obsolete and widely unsupported protocol, and long after all the Bluetooth headphones like AirPods and others have died from failing glued-in batteries, good old normal headphones will still work fine, with any device which can output analog audio at suitable power. (Heck, given their incredible resilience, my old AKGs might still work then too.)
- blub 7y agoCurrently it's more like normal headphones that everyone uses and weirdo lighting headphones that only Apple uses. This Apple dongle fetish is a usability anti-pattern, it can't be seriously suggested that we attach all sort of crap to our devices so that they continue working with Apple products.
