They had to because it's impossible to water proof the iPad with a headphone jack, or because there's not enough space inside the device, I forgot what was the official reason they used for the iPhone. The unofficial reason is that no headphone port means more AirPod sales.

- frosted-flakes 4y agoThe iPad is not waterproof anyway, and I'm currently holding a smaller, waterproof Android phone with a headphone jack (Samsung Galaxy S10e), so whoever gives that as an excuse doesn't know what they're talking about.
