  • New CAD renderings support rumored features of Apple's 'iPhone 7' and '7 Plus'

    Watch the iPhone 7 fail dismally - followed by an iPhone 7S or 8 that returns the 3.5mm headphone jack. 
    HAHA,

    Yeah right, old headphone jacks are not going to make a come back. When has an analog technology ever made a come back? You are the same guy who said "Macs are going to flop without CD ROM's" this isn't just about making apple devices smaller its about getting rid of a terrible technology that requires wires.

  • Alleged 'iPhone 7' chassis shows symmetrical speakers, lacks 3.5mm headphone jack

    Disappointing if true,  The headphone jack is one of the most important features to me.... Way more important than the camera...  I use it hours every day in multiple locations, connected to different devices (car stereo, large quality headphones I keep at work, small ear buds I use for working out, and multiple home stereos depending on what room I am in). 

    No other audio interface will suffice,  I am not willing to sacrifice the quality & convenience of a traditional headphone jack, I am not willing to spend hundreds of dollars to buy several dongles or spend hundreds of dollars to change my audio equipment,  And I am not willing to carry a dongle with me at all times. 

    Its a simple, ubiquitous, quality, standard, with no peer.   Its not like the floppy disk, its not like fire wire.

    So if these rumors are, true my next phone will be an android.


    some people the headphone jack is a total deal breaker but for most us we use bluetooth anyways, and secondary old anolog headphone technology is not going to come back in a big way, its on its way out, and one day in a few years no phones will have them.

  • Former Apple employees reveal iPhone-connected aftermarket car backup camera

    This is cool, but most people who do not already have a backup camera built in will probably not be able to justify 500 dollars to add one on their car.

  • Apple refuses to back GOP convention because of Trump politics

    weathers said:
    I'm not a Trump fan and I am an Apple product user, but I find it ironic that Apple (Tim Cook) doesn't seem to mind selling their products in countries who degrade women and persecute  gays and lesbians. The hypocrisy of either party is getting to ridiculous levels.

    I hate this particular argument, as it basically suggests if you can't save the entire world, you shouldn't try anywhere. Apple is a US based company and if it's going to try and make a difference it will have more impact at home, than in a foreign country.

  • Eric Schmidt says he uses an iPhone, but claims to prefer Samsung's Galaxy

    in Schmidt's defense he would have used his galaxy to take the photo but the battery was dead.
