Incipio has announced The OX Case which brings the headphone jack back to the iPhone 7.

Incipio’s innovative OX Case provides users with the ability to listen to music and charge their iPhone 7 simultaneously.

The OX Case delivers a two-in-one charging and listening experience conveniently wrapped in a protective case solution, all while maintaining the iPhone 7’s sleek and slim profile.

“We wanted to bring the headphone jack back to the latest iPhone so our customers could still enjoy their favorite pair of traditional headphones without worrying about low-battery and sacrificing device protection,” said Carlos Del Toro, Director of Products, Incipio. “The protective OX Case allows individuals to use existing headphones with a 3.5mm audio connector through the built-in headphone jack, while simultaneously allowing access to the Lightning™ port for charging.”

Details:
● Integrated 3.5mm headphone jack for connecting wired headphones without a dongle or adapter

The things you remove in order to say that it was for a bigger battery, to seal the inside and keep the water out, to move a component....when in reality it was to sale the AirPods months later and try to sale it as the world is now doing everything wirelessly. The AirPods suck, you can't even control the media nor volume. You have to take your phone out and control it there, so where's the wireless technology? Big Failure on Tim Cooks part.

Mis-informed on all levels... You can still use the standard earpods, they are included in the box. The wireless ones DO control music and volume by voice or by tapping them.

That's why they give you an adapter with the phone.

His* and I agree, for the next 2 years it's gonna suck but the end goal is having a fully water proof phone :D and one connection for literally everything which I actually appreciate. I have a drawer filled with like 40 different connections ... it's ridiculous

This is so desperate. It's called Bluetooth.

It's also called bad audio quality, inconvenience and constant charging.

It's also called you don't know what you're talking about. This is the way of the future. I charge my wireless beats maybe twice a week. And I'm constantly using them. Maybe three times a week if I use them a little more at work. I'm not sure what this "constant charging" you refer to is. Maybe splurge the money on decent headphones and you won't be "constantly charging" them. And I've had mine for about two years now and the battery last just as long today as when first got them.
