      I don’t object to them as an optional feature, but they are about as useful as optical drives to the typical user.

      I used to be one of the angry people pissed off about losing the jack.

      Now that I have a few wireless earphones, I wouldn’t go back to wired. It’s a mild inconvenience to have to charge them but the battery life is decent and not have a cable getting caught on stuff whilst I’m working is super useful.

      The audio quality is a tiny bit worse than wired, but unless you’re an audio engineer, you’re not going to notice.

      There was always a Lightning to headphone adapter if you really wanted it but most of us had given up the headphone jack long before Apple stopped providing it
