    Almost all of these points are meaningless once you factor in samsung...
    1. Removed it for water resistance - S7 and up have all had water resistance, while keeping the headphone jack
    2. Removed for space for more features - Samsung literally fit a pen in their phone, while keeping the massive amount of features they normally bring
    3. Removed for a bigger battery - Samsung fits very large batteries in their phones, with a headphone jack, and with the note, *with a pen*
    I do believe if apple didn't remove it, someone else would have, but it was much too early. Bluetooth headphones arent there yet

      Sorry friend, but Samsung have one of the worst real world battery lifes out there. Don't try pointing me towards synthetic tests saying otherwise, i've already seen them. I've also owned a samsung and had to get rid of it after 9 months because of it's attrocious battery life, not to mention how fast their batteries degrade too. The only way a Samsung device's battery could get better is if it exploded. Oh wait, they tried that feature already. Didn't go down too well.
      You do have a valid point with the first and second points though, although most people never even touch the S Pen. The main reason people buy a note is purely for the larger screen.
      There is another point to be made as far as space goes too. Have you seen the inside of a Samsung phone? They still use the same small pack style batteries that have been in use for over a decade. They are generally much smaller than what other manufacturers use today, which begs the question:
      With the fact samsung have atrocious battery life and degrade very quickly, are their batteries even the amount of Amps they say they are, or are they modding the battery's built in firmware to report a higher number than is true?
      That would certainly explain how when I had an S7, it always died within 5 hours of being unplugged. I have never had that bad of a battery life with ANY phone before, Androids included. Even when I had a Sony Xperia Z2, that lasted all day despite having a 2K display, without problems. And I'm not the only one either. Every friend of mine who has/had a samsung reports the same complaints. Even Linus himself had to release a follow up video to his S9 review where he initially praised the battery - because he realised after some time that the battery is in fact, absolutely terrible. And by some time, I mean a mere few months, never mind the expected minimum device lifespan of 1-2 years.

      He broke like 10 screens while doing that and he put it right on the corner, that extra space was used to help the phone sustain accidental corner drops, if they had put the jack there the screen would shatter as soon as you dropped the phone and it hit the corner.
      The waterproof headphone jack is patented and costs royalties meaning it drives the price up to give us something that most of us don't use anyway... no thanks.
      The water resistance is for accidents, not for swimming with your phone... if the water gets in, the warranty doesn't cover you. Many people accidentally dropped their phone in the water, they are most abused pieces of technology on the planet, so water resistance makes much more sense than a crappy 3 pin connector from 60s that takes so much space.

    • @harshnemesis
      @harshnemesis 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      @jackthegamer Nope even from 2 meters the iPhone dropped on a corner does not break, you get scratches and dings on corner, so it's all cosmetic and both the screen and back glass are still fine, this is because there is some room behind the frame which really helps to absorb the damage... adding a headphone jack which is pushing against the screen is the total opposite... there just wasn't room for it.

    "We don't have space!" Bruh. My Xiaomi phone has the 3.5mm jack, a mechanized front facing camera and still manages to fit in a 4000mAh battery. It's not like that made sacrifices either. The CPU and "graphics accelerator" were the fastest on the market when I bought it. It doesn't even get hot.(though I usually play less intensive games, if I remember playing PUBG also didn't heat it up though) The battery holds up nice too. Lasts long and charges fast. All that for a fraction of an iPhone with the downside being I wouldn't be surprised if Xiaomi spied on people though Apple is probably doing the same... Not even gonna mention Google. That argument is just bull.

    3:14 That is just flat out incorrect. Wireless transmission of audio delivers objectively poorer sound quality and is more prone to interference than cables. And as for digital connectors, there is going to be a digital to analog conversion anyway, the only difference is that it happens inside the headphone rather than the phone. Not to mention that the best sounding headphones still use a jack for connection, so you're going to need a headphone jack if you want to maximize sound quality, even if a better connector could exist in theory.

      @@Alovon Liking your own comment I see. :P 64 GB is ridiculously small because two thirds of it is already taken by the OS. I fill the remaining storage in a few hours, then I need to off-load it to somewhere else. No thank you. Besides, memory cards are orders of magnitudes cheaper than the same phone with better internal storage one step up. I could buy a terabyte of microSD cards from the price difference. I will not budge. My next phone will either have everything my LG G4 has just more of it, or I won't buy one, it's that simple.

    I wonder what would happen if a startup came along and released a phone that was relatively thick (at least by today's standards), that incorporated all features consumers looked for. A headphone jack, the biggest battery that's available, dual cameras, wireless charging, expandable memory, no notch display that's 120hz, and most importantly, stock android (no dumb skin or bloatware). I mean call me crazy, but I'd happily buy a thicker phone if it meant I got more functionality out of it.
    Edit : Of course extensive R&D would be necessary to create a good user experience. Weight and heat are definitely concerns, those are the issues that would need to be addressed, new technology and innovations are always in development so with lighter components and better heat transfer solutions, it could be possible. In all honesty I thought the newer Samsung phones were close to perfect, but the poor android skin and the fact that they can't help but push Bixby down people's throat was a major turn off. In terms of public perception and marketing, developing a good brand image is hard and takes time, however not impossible. Mother's not buying phones for their weight is a real thing, but that's where the free market comes in. This kind of phone would not be for everyone, and that's fine.

    The fact that it's not in their tablets shows that the "space saving" argument is BS. Maybe waterproofing is an argument, but I'm sure 90% of people would rather have a phone with some sort of cover to waterproof the headphone jack than no headphone jack at all. And the Samsung Galaxy S5, one of the first phones to have waterproofing, needed a cover for the charging port, and not the headphone jack, showing that it was easier to waterproof the headphone jack than the charging port. I'm gonna stick with my theory that they're removed to push the company's wireless headphones which coincidentally happen to release when a company gets rid of a headphone jack.

It just adds unnecessary components and takes room inside the casing. Wireless headphones already have batteries that last 24 hours and if you must use wired ones, this is the one situation where adapter is preferable. On something like desktop computer few extra holes and components don't matter that much, but in a smartphone? Good riddance.

    the first 2 factors I look at when considering whether to buy a phone or not nowadays:

    2) no notches
    these are things that weren't even in question a few years ago and now it immediately cuts half of the phones out there out of the picture. It's always disappointing when you see a video talking about a phone and the phone looks really, really good and has a lot of cool features just for you to find out that there's a big ugly notch and there's no headphone jack. Huge turn off. The phone would have to offer something truly spectacular, like transforming into a flying car that can bring me anywhere in the world without ever needing to recharge, in order for me to even consider overlooking those 2 issues.
