@Polychrome TBF you're "supposed" to just support #Bluetooth. You can also theoretically charge a device wirelessly through #Qi and use an adapter to connect to wired headphones or earbuds.
I always find it funny though that nobody points out that #Apple got rid of the headphone jack on the #iPhone because they wanted to make their phones thinner and thinner and the headphone jack was getting in the way of that lol
@sj_zero @Polychrome It's actually not a bad decision. Buttons break if you use em enough, at a higher rate than screens I think.
Though to be fair when #Apple switched to haptic sensors for the #iPhone home "button", that probably addressed most of those issues.
If a company reintroduced the home button, I wonder how people would respond.
@Polychrome @sj_zero I feel like we can have haptics without uniformly smooth glass. There should be a divot on the panel so that the home button is already slightly depressed; it makes no sense for that section of the glass panel to be completely smooth!
@sj_zero @Polychrome They were cutting it very, very close.
But I guess they gave up on the thinness craze because the thinnest stock #iPhone they sell now, the #iPhoneSE, is 7.3mm thick.

@Polychrome @realcaseyrollins @sj_zero The submersion thing is also bs; my phone had a jack and goes under just fine.
@doephin @Polychrome @sj_zero Same, I previously had the #SamsungGalaxyS10e which has #IP68 water resistance and it had a headphone jack
