Not apple specific.



Are you playing a keyboard on any phone?


No. What is your obsession with phones? Apple has removed the ability to use wired headphones. So the wired headphones I have couldn't be used with my (hypothetical) Apple phone.


Because the discussion is about Apple and most of the rest of high end phones removing the 30 year old analog headphone jack from phones…


Yes. Ok, we've almost looped all the way back around. In the context of talking about high end phones, this question was posed. (by you)

> I can’t understand why people are so attached to cords.

On the assumption that you wanted to understand some reasons people like corded headphones, I provided some real reasons. I use my headphones for things other than my phone. But it would be nice to use them with the phone also.
