I'm thinking the headphones will have a pass through. But I can see that being a tangled mess

It will be bothersome to a lot of people. Again I'm calling out all the Audiophiles. Let me make a thread on Head-fi regarding this.

So you can't listen to music and charge your phone at the same time, and you can only use Beats headphones, which you won't be able to use with anything else, apart from an Apple device

Surely people don't sit by the wall with headphones in

Plus most companies are heading towards Bluetooth headphones anyway. Analog audio will be a thing of the past soon, just like analog features for home entertainment.

Don't fix what's not broken. Haven't we all learned?

Not as soon as my sister was thinking of getting the next iphone. We didn't spend money on these headphones only to have to buy special ones.

Not those basic bitches coming for iconic headphone jack.

If nothing else, the issue with charging a phone and listening to music at the same time will be a major issue for some.

Lol. Sound quality compared to those is like heaven and earth. The tech on bluetooth headphones might be far above the standard IEMs but IEMs have far superior sound quality.

I agree.

They need to raid Steve's house for some ideas he might've not mentioned when he was alive. The company has been going downhill since his death.

It's 2014 though. In the tech world things move so quickly, everything must be updated.

But you watch, Apple are only saying they want to, not that they are going to.
People need to remember how quickly Apple implement plans

Bluetooth uses up a lot of battery life and the headphones are very expensive. Until they fix those two issues, it will never catch on.

Right.

Noise cancellation shouldn't even be a feature of the headphone. Stuff like that should be done by the phone itself. And that is exactly how it's being down right now.

For all of y'all thinking about switching:

I'm sorry but the headphone jack is those things that we shouldn't touch unless better tech comes out. That isn't better tech, that's a marketing ploy that will be integrated and force you to buy Beats by Dre.

This will bring in more money for them, so they will. Or would it? The fact that this will alienate a lot of their loyal customers I'm pretty sure this will bomb.
