We love HTC, most of us writing here had HTC as our first device and historical affection for it is quite high. However, the company did not raise its head for several years, although their devices are of high quality. The truth is that HTC devices have a hard time competing against their competitors in almost every area.
today, We have news that you may or may not like, and that it wouldn’t do HTC any good if it were true. HTC’s next high-end should have it all, and it looks like it won’t.
HTC, removing the 3.5 jack is a mortal mistake
For a few days we’ve been talking about HTC Ocean or HTC U, the future successor to the HTC 10. This will be HTC’s top-of-the-line device, so it should be able to compete with devices like the S8, P10 or LG G6.
However, as we read in Android Central, HTC could do without the headphone jack. It seems they’ve been more focused on copying Apple than delivering anything functional since then No high-end this year chose to finish the jack, as users have indicated that they do not agree with it. Otherwise, it has an IP57 protocol, is dustproof and waterproof up to one meter.
As you perro see, not the latest technology in device protection, and the omission of the jack plug is more of an annoyance than a joy, because not everyone has to spend money on a Bluetooth headset. We hope that HTC will not release any product without this very important feature as it could do them a lot of harm and given their current situation it doesn’t suit them.
