A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Everything I believed about this company is called into question since they removed the headphone jack.

It does so much good and all you can do is whine about the headphone jack that no other phone has either?

The whole point is that it's not like other phones. The whole point is that it's supposed to be sustainable.

Removing the capability of using wired headphones that have no batteries and have an indefinite life goes against everything the company claims to stand for.

Immediately turning around and introducing Bluetooth options is what every other manufacturer has done to drive profits.
