Is it true that its just another money grab to try to convince users to buy apple headphones? Most definitely. Does it also free up space for other things in the phone? Well that is their claim and makes a fair amount of sense. Changes can be scary but not sure why this is such deal breaker for so many?

The biggest thing for me is not being able to charge my phone while using headphones. There are countless times when I've needed to charge my phone while continuing to use headphones for music/netflix. It's silly and inconvenient I won't be able to do both at the same time without purchasing expensive wireless headphones. I assumed that this move would coincide with the addition of wireless charging, without that option this is a big miss imo.
