Always-Updated List of Phones With No Headphone Jack Built-In

The past year brought about a number of trends in the smartphone space. More immersive displays, better processors, and portrait mode for cameras come to mind as big steps forward. One of the most polarizing trends that continued in 2017 is the removal of the 3.5 mm headphone jack from flagship phones. The number of manufacturers that have completely dispensed with wired audio is staggering, so let's run down the full list!

Motorola began the pattern of removing headphone jacks in early 2016. The Moto Z and Moto Z Force Droid were the first modern Android flagships to move to USB-C for both charging and audio. Apple kicked off the trend in earnest when they removed the minijack port in the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus in September 2016. Since then, a number of manufacturers all over the world have kicked wired audio to the curb.
