Absolute twaddle and what regulations?

Micro USB for mobile is now old hack, make way for USB C and Apple are already 
using that on their Macbook range so perhaps USB C will appear on iPhone in the 
future though I doubt the immediate future, too many Lightning dock devices out 
there.

Another thing. What if they make headphones with a lightning connector? What if 
they have two lightning ports on the phone? What if the headphones can monitor 
health data like the Apple watch? What if they can do virtual reality stuff, 
like moving sound as one moves the head? Think.

Re: Apple's iPhone 7 WILL dump the headphone socket | DailyMail Online

[Dane Trethowan]

I’m really looking forward to the stereo speakers the article talks about.

As the iPhone line has progressed the quality of the speakers have improved.

I got my old iPhone 3GS out just now and boy, that speaker is absolutely God 
Damn Awful compared to the speaker in the iPhone 6S or the 6.

Now if an iPhone 7 had two of those speakers - the other would obviously go 
where the headphone socket now is - that phone would sound very nice indeed.

The article does talk about stereo speakers being in the 7.

Re: Apple's iPhone 7 WILL dump the headphone socket | DailyMail Online

[Dane Trethowan]

The 6S and 6S+ are remarkably strong and robust models, they're actually 
thicker than the 6 and 6+ phones were to accommidate that extra steel 
frame to make them stronger.


So if we take the headphones socket out we can leave that steel frame or 
something similar in place and make the phone thinner? I guess that's 
what Apple is thinking about but I'm not surprised that some are making 
mountains and of molehills over this, quite amusing actually.

1, since we are talking about speakers, I will kick off with that a thicker
phone could very possibly be fitted with a speaker/speakers with a

2, a thicker phone could use a considerably higher capacity battery, giving

The thickness or lack thereof, is that a real problem? There are benefits to
be had, stereo speakers for one thing could be made a great deal of use of,
not just for music but for games, mobility Apps and the phone generally
being a little louder than it is now.

To illustrate the point a little if I may, I have an iPad Mini.

No, not quite the same as an iPhone given the Mini is a little harder but it
does have stereo speakers whereas my previous iPads didn’t.

The sound given that extra speaker was noticed the minute I enabled
Voiceover.

It reduces thickness by one millimetre.
but they want to make more money by making us by their particular
headphhone.

Hi,
It's a real shame. We are many, who like the analog style headphones so
I'll
skip this update and stay with 6S.
Any reason why they're removing the plug? I mean they don't take up much
space.

Best regards
Brian

I can't wait to see what the new headphones are like, and even what they
can
do now that they have digital capabilities. It might not be just audio
that
goes through them.

Re: Apple's iPhone 7 WILL dump the headphone socket | DailyMail Online

[goshawk on horseback]

given the prices of the phones, and the problems that are already showing 
themselves with some of the thinner and larger models, such as the 6plus for 
example, with them being able to get bent so easily, I would say yes, it is 
starting to become a problem! when you fork out that much for something, I 
think it is reasonable to expect it to last, with out having to treat it so 
delicately as you seem to have to with the flimsy stuff that seems to be the 
in thing these days. I can certainly think of a good few benefits to having 
the phones made a bit thicker.
1, since we are talking about speakers, I will kick off with that a thicker 
phone could very possibly be fitted with a speaker/speakers with a 
better/wider frequency response.
2, a thicker phone could use a considerably higher capacity battery, giving 
greatly extended battery life in demanding situations.
and/or 3, a thicker phone would have more room for possibly more storage 
memory, and/or a more powerful CPU.

The thickness or lack thereof, is that a real problem? There are benefits to 
be had, stereo speakers for one thing could be made a great deal of use of, 
not just for music but for games, mobility Apps and the phone generally 
being a little louder than it is now.

To illustrate the point a little if I may, I have an iPad Mini.

No, not quite the same as an iPhone given the Mini is a little harder but it 
does have stereo speakers whereas my previous iPads didn’t.

The sound given that extra speaker was noticed the minute I enabled 
Voiceover.

Aren’t the I-Phones thin enough already?

Just don’t put your phone in your trouser pocket, you might snap it.

A very ill considered post, Apple aren’t the only one’s selling Bluetooth 
headphones.
