This is the day and age where smartphone producers are going the wireless route. speaking of which, many of the OEMs out there are abandoning the good old and innocent 3.5mm headphone jack on their flagship devices and encouraging consumers to use Bluetooth audio devices instead. some people may wonder why is this happening and some believe this is done in purchase to produce very thin devices.
Fine, I agree that this is done in purchase to bring in sleek devices. However, there were very thin and sleek devices with headphone jack before, so this isn’t something revolutionary. Rather, this was the trend started by none other than Apple with the debut of the iphone 7/7 Plus. speaking of which, from there as typical other producers followed suit. Whichever way I think, I can’t get this logic of OEMs. and yeah, I practically forgot about the fact that a few OEMs love the infamous notch on the iphone X as you might have seen on the devices that were unveiled at MWC 2018.
