In an interview with TechRadar, OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei has confirmed that the upcoming OnePlus 6T won't have a 3.5mm headphone jack.
"It [removing the headphone jack] was a very controversial decision. We're not doing it for the sake of doing it and because everyone else is. We believe now is the right time, as it'll benefit the majority of our users while keeping the downside low", Pei said about the controversial decision.
The OnePlus co-founder admitted that removing the 3.5mm jack will make some fans unhappy, but it allows the company to add more technology into the upcoming device.
