    Believe it or not, it still works. Not the screen obviously, but the phone. I was able to connect it to iTunes and make a backup.

    RIP little buddy.

    I bet there's a dongle that could fix that.
    PLesa excuse the tpyos.

      Do let us know which wireless headphones you choose with your new phone...

        Picked up my new 7 today. Love everything about it but the missing jack.

        • Was this damage from a drop or something else? It appears to be from a hard impact to the top end, but you have a shock absorbing case on it so I would imagine if it was a drop it would be fairly high. It looks like my phone did after an 8 story fall down an Embassy Suites elevator shaft.

            I got one yesterday but I haven't used it yet. It's sitting in my nightstand drawer. I'm giving my daughter my old phone for her b-day, which is in a week, but I can't spoil the surprise by breaking out my new phone because she'd figure it out.

                It stopped an attacker's bullet while he was in jail.

                That reminds me of a Blackberry I crushed years ago. I dropped it while leaning back in a chair, and it slid under the front chair leg just as I leaned forward to pick it up. That was on of those moments where time feels like it slows down to give you time to think "Oh, no" but not enough time to react.

                    Just set it up and am now using the new iPhone 7. Its fast and the home non-button is cool. Other than that, it's just a phone. I haven't yet noticed the lack of a headphone jack since I typical don't use it.

                      What is so cool about the non button?

                        it's a lot faster than the fingerprint thing on past iphones and the haptic feedback is cool

                          I had haptic feedback once, I think, but then I moved the mic farther away from the speaker and it solved the problem.

                            Done been having haptic feedback on home buttons for years.

                              Overall, I am impressed. I like the new color option and the touch bar looks like it will be great. Lots of nice advancements.
                              Bought one of these for my daughter a couple of days ago. Very nice. The touch bar is cool. Audio jack is handy!

                                Perfect timing... you should just give all your old headphones to your daughter and get some apple airpods! Available now!
