Camera cutouts look awful (would look less terrible if centered), but I'll just have to deal with a hole punch phone if it still has a headphone jack. Not ready to give that up anytime soon.

Lmao so many things wrong with this post
1- "200$ extra" compared to what?
2- What do you base your assumption that the jack is the *only* reason for people to purchase a Samsung phone on?
3- You can't buy the convenience of always having a port that people actually use available when needed.
when i first got my s9+ i instatly started to use Samsung pay .. then my it friend who works in IT security defense for some businesses told me it can be easily hacked :( idk if its still true today but it freaked me out and i stopped using it lol
i loved that feature but im just paranoid. . i probably reach back out to him and ask if its more secure now lol

1, compare to every other android phone that's not pixel?
2, based on some of the posts I see on this thread. There are a lot I don't even have to quote
3, well I am just saying its not worth the extra premuim Samsung S phone charges. Would I deny a phone with 3.5mm jack? No I won't
Lot's of android phones are cheaper and still have a headphone jack anyway. Lack of headphone jack is a straight up deal breaker for me (along with SD card support).
People are interested because this phone has everything people could want in a premium phone.
????
If you want to purchase an android phone only because of the headphone jack you can buy a Moto G6 Plus for like...250$? Or a Moto G6 for less than that or a Xiaomi Mi A1 for like 120$...
People buy Samsung because they want a phone that's flaghship level AND has a headphone jack. Wanting a high end phone is already a first world problem to begin with, so I don't understand how you find weird that people also want that phone to have basic audio functionality.
Like come on, you do perfectly understand why people buy Samsung phones AND why people want headphone jacks. You're just pretending you don't.
I just just laughing at posters who put 3.5mm jack on a pedestal, and conveniently forget other features Samsung left behind, such as removable battery.
i wonder how many people there are that bought extra batteries vs how many people probably dropped their phone in something wet by accident.
we no longer need removable batteries from where i see technology is at today. i dont see any base on that argument tbh.
plus, our portable chargers are more convenient and can charge other items than just serve a purpose for one phone. the more i think about your comment the more i think you just want to troll. cool

So there's a rule that you can only express your desire for a headphone jack if you also express your desire for removable batteries in the same post?
This might shock you, but it's possible for people to find the jack more important than removable batteries, even if they appreciate both.
Just wait till the 11, they'll probably have solved the front camera issue by then
S5 active?
I mean Ive had a S4 s7 and note 9 now. I have no problems with the improvements they continue to make while maintaining features I like
I'm sure it's been mentioned, but hasn't Samsung outright stated that she s10 would have the aux jack but that it was the last phone of theirs to have it?
Dont see anything about that on Google. Just speculation from folks based on the A8 not having a headphone jack.
Well, I have headphones that are 3k plus, and several others 1k plus..... so yeah... "paying $200 extra for a Samsung" on the go is nothing.
Man I'm missing the boat on this excitement over headphone jacks.
Once I've gone to wireless I'll never go back.
I never get bothered by my X notch and pinhole looks to be whatever.
I honestly don't even know what a phone would have to do to make me upgrade from this used X I picked up.

Once you've lost 2-3 pairs of headphones you start to appreciate cheaper options.
A Note 10 or S10 Plus with an LG level DAC would be too good for this world.
As nice as these phones are, my s8 plus is so nice as of right now I'll keep holding onto it until the s10 plus goes through a price drop. I ain't paying that initial Samsung tax.
I have Bluetooth earphones for the gym and portability, full sized corded headphones when I want to listen to immerse myself in music.
Options are always good. Removing the jack is just taking options away, not adding anything new in its place.
Not what I was saying at all but feel free to disingenuously misinterpret.
That's cool. I like not having my music drop out because I covered the BT antenna, also not having another thing to keep charged or not be able to use because it's battery went dead.
"Ah crap, I only was able to listen to 15 mins of music before a constant 'Battery Low' warning started going off because I forgot to charge/pack a charger for my headphones/earbuds.,"
I'm going to be honest I use my AirPods as much as I can every day and never have any charge issues. Maybe the charge case is that good idk.
I just set myself up a nice charging setup and plug my shit in at the end of the day. Charging doesn't bother me and that new air pad thing looks to solve some of those charging issues.
Honestly it's the freedom from the wires. Get up and walk around and ur still connected. No wires is huge.
Korean Source: Samsung to drop the headphone jack on upcoming Galaxy device
The lies. They gottem again. Same rumor happened the year before on the 9 too, then the reveal comes and the 3.5 jack is still there.
Nope, they never said that.

It's 2019 and people still complain about Samsung bloat?
My Galaxy S7 still runs great and I'm sure OneUI will bring more big improvements. Plus Samsung software has so many more useful additional features compared to the rather basic but weirdly admired stock Android.
Every time Google announces a new Android update these days it's just filled with features Samsung already has. So later updates aren't really an issue. What's more of an issue is you only get support for two major updates on a phone.
What are those apps? I'm having Chrome as default and I never encountered this.

Here's a shocker - I don't want bluetooth earphones. The price is of no issue to me.
Sweet, I'll probably get one of these from my company next year. The in display fingerprint sensor is a game changer. Are there any phones with that already?
Really happy with my Beoplay E8 wireless earbuds. It is indeed much better than wired (as well as it should for €280 of course), ain't never going back, even if you look a bit of a ninny with big plugs in your ears. But occasionally the batteries die, and having a backup option is always nice.
I don't get the people who keep pushing wireless audio. I'm sure most, if not all, of us pushing for the jack to remain also have wireless sets. I love leaving my S9+ on my desk while I do chores etc and not be tethered. Then when I want to listen to music or watch a movie on the bus/plane/in bed, I go plug in my Etymotics ER4's and just completely seal out the world and get immersed. Having options is always good. Would having a headphone jack in your iPhone/Pixel 3 prevent you from using your airpods/wireless set?
I'm just your average Joe, not an IT guy. But as far as I know it's safe: anything can be technically hacked. It encrypts the data, plus needs verification which is either your fingerprint or a PIN..
Cool thanks. I have the S8+ which I really like but the sensor on the back is a real negative point.
I'm waiting on the Note. S8+ size has me used to a large phone and I want the S Pen because it truly alters the smartphone experience beyond tech specs that about a dozen flagship phones will all have in 2019.
And the camera peep holes will look minimal compared to the rumored massive 6.75" screen.

Reminder for those complaining about prices
Still a great looking phone, no stupid notch/cutout and internals that are fast enough for 99.9% of people for the next few years.
Overspending on your budget just to run benchmark tools isn't really a sensible thing to do.

Doesnt samsung now own a couple of headphone makers? So maybe they have a vested interest to keep the headphone jack alive for as long as possible. As for the camera hole just like the notch these feel more like stop-gap solutions that app developers have to take in account only for them to be dropped in a generation or two.

Nice the headphone jack is still there. Might finally change from my S6 edge. Also is the Samsung themes feature still around with their new phones?
Yes, fuck no bezels when it's asymmetrical. I'm an iPhone user but I think Samsung phones look fantastic, and I would prefer the small bezels instead of a notch
How often do these newer phones get custom ROMs? Damn that's a sexy phone but I'll always want stock android.
That's totally cool for you! You know what, I absolutely love my bluetooth headphones as well. I use them pretty often.
But you know what else I have to work with when I forget to bring them? My wired headphones, which I have a cheap pair everywhere I frequent. Got them at my work desk, in my bedroom, in the living room, in my bag, and even in my car.
Having a headphone jack does not mean you can't use wireless headphones, it means you CAN USE BOTH. That's what we're celebrating, the fact that the manufacturer gives you the option to use your device the way you would prefer. If you want to go all wireless on the new Samsung phone, guess what, you CAN! But if you would prefer to go the wired route (which is still superior in some regards, especially with those that put an emphasis on audio fidelity), then you have that option too.
