Apple has lately ditched the 3.5mm audio hole for its iPhone device and this seems like marking an end to all the headphones available in the market. However, the notion is wrong as the hearing accessories can still be used with the help of Lightning connector. The latest tech market trend is to sell those earphones that can connect to the Lightning port.
The wrap up of 3.5mm jack should not be considered frowning, but it has advantage too like the sound quality is now stepped up from 16-bit to 24-bit, which is master recordings produced in studios.
