Makes joke about apple, on a macbook.
Camismyjam
I would lose these so fast...
JetSetGo
I would love to switch, but since I've been on Apple so long, it would be incredibly expensive to replace my apps, music, and videos.
I'm really hoping this blows up in their faces and they bring back the aux port in the 7S, but if they don't, I guess I'll have to switch.

Are the new iPhones only going to be compatible with apple licensed earbuds now or will any old wireless crap work?

JBL is making lightning headphones I believe.

No wired headphones will work without an adapter that blocks the charging port. Wireless will work.

iPhone 7 comes with EarPods that have a Lightning connector. But if you still want to listen through your old headphones, you can plug them
in using a 3.5 mm headphone jack adapter, also included

No one should be using buds to begin with. Use well isolated over-ear headphones. Buds can cause hearing loss quicker than you think.

BeatsBearsBattlestarGallactica
I mean I hate that apple headphones go straight out and don't have a 90 degree bend at the connector. I always feel like I might snap them.
But the fix for that is changing the connector out. Not killing the port.
Someone in my religion classes has this, what happens when that breaks?

Could be in a bid to work on a waterproof phone.
noneyabizniz
Waterproof phone already exsists. With headphone jack. Just not in the states. Called the torque. I have it and it's perfection :3
Is it water proof or water resistant? I'm saying water proof as in IP69k
lawrus
Uh, Galaxy S7
Galaxy s7 isn't waterproof, it's water resistant. 1.5m @30mins compared to the iPhone which is resistant in UP TO 1.5m @30mins
ThatMomentWhenImgurJokesAreOnlyFunnyToImgurians
if no one ever hated headphone jacks, then bluetooh headphones wouldn't be a thing

Because everybody fall into the trap.I bought a BT headphone set only to realise I prefer some headphones that I don't need to charge.

They have headphones that plug in to the lighting adaptor on the phone, and a lightning to headphone jack adaptor in the box.

Apple figured out a way to reduce the variety of headphones available to consumers. Cheap decent replacements or expensive crappy Apple buds
PlantainSuperNova
Except the Iphone 7 comes with an adapter so you can use any type of head/earphone you want...
aceebro
Without being able to charge your phone.
FifteenthDoctor
Well seeing as the lightning to 3.5mm jack adapter exists I don't think this is true
gebsmith1
Not only does it exist but you get a free one and extras are $9
Carnification
There's a dongle that comes with the phone that you can plug your 3.5mm jacks into.
And makes it so you can't charge.

That is pretty cool, but I'm not gonna spend $200 on something that I'll lose in about 3 seconds. I legit only use headphones if I need to
drown out sound. But these DO look spiffy. Sadly, I'm an iphone girl.
HmmICantThinkOfACleverUsernameRightNow
Why do people like Apple so religiously? I've never understood it. Especially since it's obviously not the technology, price, or convenien
Music technology, I don't have more than one but you can use them all at the same time, and digital painting.
I'm sure there are good specific applications; I was more thinking of the average Joe's reason.
Yeah, I can't think of any to be honest. Maybe the lack of lag is the only thing
EvilBrainAngelHeart
If all you have are apple products, they all sync together well and present a unified interface.
That's the only thing Apple users have ever presented as an argument I found very sound. Certainly not enough for me to switch, though.
(I wouldn't have gotten this iPad unless my uncle had gotten two in work, I wouldn't have dared go near that price)
nothanksnothanks
What Apple products do you own?
I personally own none, but my gf has an iphone and my best friend has Apple computers/tablet/phone, so I've used them a good bit.
It's the phone itself for me. I've tried using androids and windows phones. I feel like the god damned apes in 2001 a space odyssey. The OS
on those are not user friendly. Someone gave me a Galaxy tablet, it's a nightmare. I hate it. But free is free.
See I dislike iphones. I'm sure I'd get used to them over time, but some of the features or lack of features I'm used to on my gf's 1/2
2/2 iphone really bug me.

Oh is it that time to jump on the apple hate bandwagon?

timeloveandyarn
Someone explain to me how the fuck they are supposed to NOT fall out of your ears?!
BuffaloBillsBush
That earbud design actually hooks into the ear so it's less likely to fall out.
NotFarEnough
Just like any current aux earbuds stay in. Now trying not to lose them on the other hand, is a different ballgame
pleasedontreproduce
Do you tie your wired earbuds to your ears? Seriously, it'll stay in the same damn way.
rebel9
The weight of the cable helps to keep them in
I don't use earbuds for precisely the reason that they do fall out of my ears.
ChloeRed
Obviously you have the wrong kind of ears according to apple. (I hate in ear headphones personally)
reux
iPod/iPhone earbuds never fit in my ear. Bose ones fit the best, but I can't used the included ones, they never ever fit.
BigSecksi
No, they have a rubber hook that loops around my ear to keep them from falling out while working.

Those are not standard issue

3 months? Mine's lasted two years. I think you should take better care of your headphones...

Being careful with your stuff should never be the default position. Stuff should be designed to handle life

I had to switch to a new 6s and I somehow lost the new headphones but my old ones are about the same age and they still work perfectly
I still haven't even opened my 6s+ headphones. They still have the plastic wrap around them.

If they can't survive pockets and getting tangled in daily use, they're not worth it.
ObiWanShalomi
Hm I think cargo pockets are ok for headphones, but not the tight pockets on your upper leg. Too much pressure, headphones r delicate right.
They're shit headphones if they're that delicate
SvellUlfr
Every "innovation" Apple makes is either stolen or a step backwards. I honestly see 0 appeal in their products
Pi3Gawdess
Literally almost all their ideas ive seen at one point or another on Cydia

Not true. Apple single handedly standardized USB. That said, fuck them.

They certainly helped, but it was far from single-handed . They've worked against standardisation ever since (Firewire, Thunderbolt..)

You want something 100% novel? Go read a research paper on something never before discovered. Everything else is a copy of a copy of a copy.

Whiteoak789
OS is solid it's not meant for tech savvy but everyday and trust me some people need that. Androids can be to overwhelming for many people.
How though? What about it is hard to use or overwhelming?
I have people that can't even find there favorites in Safari on an iPhone or that there is a voice record when they had the phone 4 years.
And iPhones are simple androids can be overwhelming with all they can do. Some people need simplicity even then it still is to much for some
Hubby is a troglodyte and struggles w/ Safari, yet never had a prob with android. I think you got that a bit backwards.

That's like saying Rolex generates more revenue than Swatch. No shit. One is for dumb rich people who don't mind wasting money.
Cause you pretty much have to pay for everything.
Software. Not Hardware. I imagine Apple targets app users for its products. Most Android manufacturers stress app use less.
notapreppie
Not sure what the step backwards is. And I doubt any of it is stolen. They do buy companies just for their IP quite often, though.
loonuhtick
Apple is just really great at marketing their devices. Hardware wise, Samsung has always had then beat. Software goes to Apple, and they 1/2
Simply do a great job sensationalizing their products to make it seem they are the original creators (apple pay, Apple watch). Best 2/3
Marketing company in the world I would say. I will just never buy their products because I don't like how they do business.
You should maybe google Steve Jobs and Xerox PARC.
Yah, but the guy made it sound like a systemic issue when it's the exception more than the rule.
Steve Jobs never invented a single thing in his entire life.
Few CEO's have. They hire people that do that for them.
They've been desperately trying to lose me as a customer for years and they might have finally done it with this fucktarded decision.
Lol. Now that's fucktarded? But the unique charger designed to make you pay more, or the 400% over inflated price were ok?

Personally I didn't have any speakers or accessories that were affected by the charger change. This will change my affinity though.

Alright so why don't you just drive a mediocre car and live in a mediocre house and marry a mediocre girl with that line of reasoning
Really? That's what you gather from not wanting to pay 400% of what it's worth? Ok. That's sad, but ok.
That's dangerous thinking

So soft no
Does it not bother you that Apple is charging you 400% more than what it costs, or that they deliberately and very very blatantly (1)
obviously rip people off by constantly changing their products so the customer has to buy extremely overpriced extra accessories? (2)
like unique chargers, unique headphones, now these new insanely overpriced headphones, don't have exchangeable batteries, etc,..? (3)

Quiet or you'll scare the sheep

Their finger print sensor is top notch tho. Logging into banking apps etc without passwords is genuinely very handy.

That's not really special to apple though, they just happen to be up on current tech on that feature.

While it's a handy (lol) tool, it's not exclusive to Apple. It's literally the only way I unlock my samsung
That's a reason for you to let them rip you off to pay 800 for a product worth 200?
My $200 motorola/lenovo has the same exact sensor. Explain to me why you consider this a flagship feature?
Because Apple's strategy of expensive=exclusive works best on gullible people. It's sad but that's the reality.
Same with the water-resistance "new feature". Galaxy S5 has it
idonthaveanyideawhatthehelliamtalkingabout
it works like a charm on my sony xperia also

As an owner of an S7 Edge that also has a fingerprint sensor, I can relate to the convenience of it.

Does the sensor work ok on the S7? I heard Samsung hadn't quite nailed that feature, but read that was before s7 was released..
Hoenut
Note 4 sensor also works great
Hated the sensor on my S7 edge. Sensor on my Moto Z is much better.
I'm thinking more about how well it works with day to day use I.e. Does it need repeated attempts at times to read the print..

Works fine. I have an s7 not-edge and it had never failed me.

greenmeeples
Same here. Works great. I love my android much more than my old iphone.
Turbosnailz
The newest software update really fixed the fingerprint scanner
Do you have to swipe down to scan the finger or does it just recognise the fingerprint as you touch the button?
I use it on my S6 edge+ for banking etc, works fine.
G1ngerBoy
There are very inexpensive androids that have that same feature
Shhh, don't use logic when talking to an Apple user.

Yep. OnePlus 3. As fast or faster than the iPhone fingerprint sensor. It's a kickass phone.

Not only does it exist but you get a free one and extras are $9

There's a dongle that comes with the phone that you can plug your 3.5mm jacks into.

Apple is just really great at marketing their devices. Hardware wise, Samsung has always had then beat. Software goes to Apple, and they 1/2
