* from 10 October
So the iPhone 7 has no 3.5mm earphone socket.
Why? – the major parameter of smartphone design is skinny jeans compatibility – that means small & above all, slim. For the internals of a phone this means make everything smaller (nano SIM) or eliminate it altogether – what happened to the 3.5mm earphone socket in the iPhone 7.
One widely canvassed concern is that it is not possible to connect headphones, speakers, etc. to an iPhone 7 & charge at the same time. There was never any doubt that solutions would be quick to appear. First out of the gate is Belkin's Lightning Audio + Charge RockStar – although not until October.
