i get that they're trying to be trendy but i don't see how apple plays into this, imo Iphones are really bad now just the big notch the 720p screens on some models. Sheep will still buy them but I don't see apple as a trendsetter anymore. The part about the headphone jack i get i was fortunate enough when i bought my huawei p20 lite over a year ago it had a headphone jack and you were able to get free bluetooth headphones which is really nice now that i have a oneplus 7. I still miss my headphone jack too but you don't find a lot of good phones with them imo.
