HTC plans to adopt 3.5mm jacks on nearly all phones

Posted on July 13, 2009 - 09:47 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

HTC unveiled that the vast majority of devices that will be launched after the Hero smartphone will have a 3.5mm jack:

We’d heard this mentioned as a possibility at past press events. This was HTC’s response when we reached out for comment:

The vast majority of devices we launch after Hero will have a 3.5mm jack. Devices that we have already announced but that still come out after Hero will not necessarily be a part of this change.

So it sounds like we may still see a few handsets hit the shelves with worthless audio ports - but aural salvation is on the way.
