Samsung’s the only mainstream Android smartphone manufacturer that still hasn’t gotten rid of the headphone jack from its phones.

While nothing is written in stone just yet, we have been wondering: How much do you care about the headphone jack and would you be okay if Samsung removes it from its flagships a year from now?
It will never be nice to not have a traditional headphone jack and have to make do with USB Type-C audio and live the dongle life. But with Samsung flagships becoming more and more advanced with each passing year, there might come a time when Samsung has no option but to scratch the headphone jack off the list of features. The Note 10 would also be a likely candidate – Samsung can’t remove the S Pen from the Note lineup, so why not remove the headphone jack?

How much do you care about the headphone jack?
