I have to agree. Today may be the day Apple jumped the shark. The use case for a headphone jack is just so broad. And the wireless headset just seems so...useless.
Spent the last hour looking at android phones. There are so many it is overwhelming

I get what you mean, there are dozens of manufacturers, each with dozens of SKU's. I wish more companies would learn from apple and limit the number of SKU's available (especially laptop manufacturers).
I've been using android since 1.6, but it's increasingly becoming google integrated OS, I think for my next phone I'll be considering ubuntu and other options.
Also stick with the Nexus line, you'll get no bloatware and you'll receive monthly security updates. The one advantage of iOS is that it feels snappier and apps load faster than on my nexus 6p. I blame the jvm ;)
It helps narrow down the options.
There is no use case for the headphone jack that can't be better handled by the lightening connector or bluetooth. Seriously. Want to integrate something from sparkfun? Bluetooth is what you want.
I think it's kinda funny how Apple haters / android zealots always talk about how Apple has lost its way, every time they do something new and significant.
iPod: complaints iPhone: complaints Mac Pro: complaints iPad: complaints and jokes Apple Watch: complaints. All of these have been hugely successful products.
But the day of their announcement people complained about how much they obviously sucked.
Using a quality external microphone.
Using your existing 250€ wired headphones while the phone is charging. Doesn't seem that outlandish to me.
