they still can use any headphones.

and it ain't just apple. many android phones do not have an analog
3.5mm jack, including the first android phone in 2008, which used a

nope. it's that most people do not use the analog headphone jack, so
the space can be better used for features more people want, with the
old analog headphone jack replaced with a more capable digital one.
