I suspect you're right that the headphone jack

anyone who misses the headphone jack doesn't let
Apple know how much they miss it. There's also
no reason Apple couldn't put the headphone jack
back in a future device, although like I said, I would doubt it.
I'm also not sure how much of my regret over
missing the headphone jack is because I'm blind.
I suppose I use my headphones more than my
sighted peers because I'll tend to grab them
every time I just want to check the lock screen,
but I don't think it's just blind users who'll
be wishing their new phone had a headphone jack
on it that they've taken for granted on all of their electronics for years.
It also sounds like you're saying we, especially
as blind consumers, shouldn't criticize Apple
for a decision they made. I'm curious, are you
just talking about Apple or all companies? Are
you just talking about blind consumers or all
consumers? For how much Apple wants me to pay to
get an iPhone 7, I think I'm allowed to
criticize a decision Apple made. I for one don't
think Apple is perfect, and I'm not just going
to assume that they'll never make a mistake and
they always know what's best for me. This isn't
a knock on Apple, but just those who think we
should just be thankful for whatever Apple
decides we as consumers and blind consumers should be happy with.

Folks. The headphone jack is gone for good and
I think we should move on. Apple made that
decision years ago and every blind user in the
world wasn't going to alter that
decision. Charging while listening isn't a big
deal for me but I'm retired and don't use my
phone all that much for calling anyway. If I
need power sooner, I'll buy the Belcan thingie.

It would be cool if iPhone SE with 3.5mm beats
iPhone 7, 7+ hard on the sales figures. Don’t
think so, but …… Camera is too oo important for sighted people.
Take care

You know, if enough people forego the iPhone
7, maybe the 8 will go back to the old plug.

You figured that something like this was
eventually going to come out by a mainstream
company or via a kickstarter campaign.
Off putting though that you have to shell out an extra $40.00 for
something that’s not even really a mobile
solution. Curious to see what kind of battery
pack designs these same companies are going to
come up with for those of us who may want or
need that extra backup. There goes another
$40.00 or $80.00 or whatever on top of
everything else. That and what type of
solution they’re going to come up with for
all the credit card swipers that are so
ubiquitous Appel was actually getting credit
yesterday for only selling the replacement
dongles for $9.00, but I guess this shows
they’re going to get their pound of flesh one way or another.
Those dongles are probably viewed as a lost leader anyway.

Hi all, I really wish Apple had shipped this
kind of product in the box, but for those who
want to upgrade and had legitimate concerns
about the lack of ability to use wired
headphones and charge, here's the solution.
