- The headphone jack has a long legacy in the audio world. So when Apple decided to exclude it from the iPhone 7, consumers were up in arms. In the years since, Samsung has been a champion for those who still wanted the headphone jack Samsung even went so far as to run a headphone jack commercial mocking Apple. But with the release of the Galaxy Note 10, it too has forgotten the decades-old technology. Did Samsung prove Apple right by killing the headphone jack?

The Rise And Fall Of The Headphone Jack
The main reasons I still use wired headphones are
1. No batteries
2. Easily switch between devices
Also you don't need the USB-C adapter, which will only wear out your charge port faster. All my old phones had charge port issues before the batteries started dying.
I like to keep my ear bud on my phone the wired so I know where they both are.
I have mi headphones which can be used both ways i use it mostly wirelessly but when it comes latency in games its bad so i use the other way around as well i.e wired
U can charge them
@@udonnoodles5636 Hello Troll
Also, your AirPods aren’t gonna help you grab your phone when you drop it.
Also, AirPods cause brain cancer
@@ambivertical that is not true
They're too lazy
That thing is a brick 🤣
That would damage the cord
Removing the headphone jack was just an anti consumer cash grab.
2021: your phone doesn't come with a charger. but you can buy it for a cheap price of 129.99$
loool that's like in 10 years
2030:
"Phones no longer come with batteries. This is to make phones as light weight as possible!
Just buy a dongle and plug it into a power bank, you'll be fine!"
Apple is doing that
Lmao
Lmao don't forget the taxes😂😂😂
Who here still uses headphone jacks?
Everyone
Mobiles with headphone jack give you both the options to go wired or wireless. And one can use any kind of earphones : cheap or expensive.
Not me
Listening with bluetooth over ears.
Honestly I never use head phones unless I’m at the gym and those are Bluetooth
Samsung: Headphone jack is too big..we must remove it.
*sticks a giant pen in the whole phone.
Yes😂😂😂
My pen is more useful than the headphones ever has been.
Obviously not a note user.
Who the hell wants a pen with it? You'll just lose it.
I know, right?! I mean of ALL phones Samsung could have chosen to remove the headphone jack they chose the Note.... Usually their biggest phone
Oh no, this is not a "rise and fall", it's a dirty move of the smartphone companies to sell you more products you don't actually need, now they sell you "promotional bundles" of the phone and their tws headphones instead of just the phone, and knowing damn well that lack of quality and stability are still an issue even in 2022
I just don't want a phone without a headphone jack. Can't bring myself to justify it, in any sensible way.
Sometimes I just want to charge my phone and have the headphones plugged in.
You still can. Ditch their proprietary connector and get a dual connector.
@@iair-conditiontheoutsideai3076 The sad part is that we as consumers have to come up with solutions, for problems like these and not the company's that make these devices.
I had to think a bit to understand this comment. My phone has a separate plug for the headphone jack and the charger.
I am not going to buy a phone that is inconvenient to me.
@@iair-conditiontheoutsideai3076 , outdated? Who decides that? I guess we can also stop using cameras, since they are also old technologies.
@@iair-conditiontheoutsideai3076 , what is there to understand about the history of auxillary ports? My laptop doesn't need LAN when it can use WIFI/WLAN, because there is hardly any inconvenience to the switch. I had wireless headphones at school. They needed to be charged, they needed battery replacements, they needed pairing, they caused my phone to discharge quickly. Moreover i try to keep wireless communications as minimal as i can, especially after i noticed that turning Flight mode off, caused me headaches, when the phone connects to a network.
Please understand me. I can build and program Bluetooth and the 3.5mm audio connection from scratch, i just don't want to be told what to use by some people working in some companies, because they need to earn.
For me headphone jack is more important than camera.
yep
Same
Lol no. I love headphone jack but camera is more important
@@lebronirving8367 I said for “me"
Same lol..
There's no fall in headphone jack demand. It's still relevant & will be for a very long time.
Yeah, glad most mindrange smartphones still have them.
Now even midranges are beginning to remove them. Bluetooth headphones are improving, and you have two other options, a dongle or a usb c headphone, the only real downside to those is you can't use it and charge, but frankly, it doesn't take that long to charge.
@@athalonARC there are adapters that make it possible to charge and listen to music
@@athalonARC i only just learned "USB-C headphones" are a thing. I do not miss the days of having to buy special phone headphones with a non-standard connection, but it seems those days will be coming back.
@@quchi7232 Even most high-end devices still have them.
Let’s have 10 cameras in a phone. But there is no space for a headphone jack? Yeah right.
"Hey let's charge $100 more for wireless headphones for people that pays $1000 for flagship smartphone because they can afford them".
...and it totally worked... that's the scary part; lol.
@Jim Bob yeah, you're right. i have to say that i'm not sure i get the point of the initial comment. ultimately, it's a good thing that people who can afford stuff are spendfing money. i mean, this is just how business works.
i guess it was just a funny commenting on the bussiness decision and how it worked.
@Jim Bob Beats started the trend, then Apple and Samsung continued it and made it a "standard"
I paid $5 at 5 Below for Bluetooth headphones and they work great 🤷🏼♀️
well, heres the thing...You're making fun of apple and samsung but the truth is thats exactly what they are up to. this is more money for samsung and apple to sell their own headphones. I think they see headphone business going much higher and they are trying to capture that market....at your expense.
When youre watching this with a headphone jack on a smartphone
I'm on galaxy buds...
100$ Xiaomi with a 10$ samsung headphone That still works well!!
I'm on wireless skullcany grind
Irony

Watching in my car with Bluetooth.
Samsung: "we removed the headphone jack to make room for a bigger battery"
Also Samsung: makes the phone thin enough to be used as a cutting tool, cuts a hole in the screen, takes away the SD card slot, oh and it still needs to be recharged multiple times a day
This statement needs more likes. Also applies to everyone else as well.
@@NoirpoolSea if Apple went bankrupt tomorrow, it wouldn't matter, because the mobile phone industry is already destroyed
cap. My samsung (got it in late 2020) can handle an entire day of use. That means from around 10:00 to 00:00 or more the next day. Do you have full brightness on with battery mode off?
@@flaglag7672 I use a pure black theme (AMOLED savings) power save mode is on (CPU speed limit is off) screen brightness is around 20% with auto brightness enabled for when I go outside
I use my phone as a tool, and an electronic tool is only as strong as its weakest part, which in the case of samsung (and every other flagship manufacturer) is the battery
I have solved that problem by hardware modding the battery, now my S10+ has a 14,000mah battery and I can actually get a full day of use out if it
@@mwbgaming28 Automatic screen brightness. That is it.
still love headphone jack, won't buy phone without them.
I agree I won't buy a phone with out the head phone jack . I need to have it for work.Bring it back
That's the reason the last iPhone that I bought was the original SE from 2016.
I know it's an old comment but I need to say that you can buy USBC headphones ezz
@@carmstrong6507 can't u just buy an USBC headphones?????
@@griffon693 No, because I have the same opinion as Spartanunit117 about a phone without a headphone jack. I love them, and I won't buy a phone without one.
They have enough space to put pen in that note 10 mobile but don't have space for 3.5mm Jack
@@thebbb. That S pen is not problem. Problem is lack of 3.5mm Jack. Wireless Headphones are still can't perform better than wired headphones.
Many of the wireless headphones do not support equalizer properly.
They need to charge separately.
And you need small box to carry those headphones otherwise you may lose them. They are forcing this technology on us.
Abhiraavan Shivay just get one of those expensive bose wireless earphones jeez
@@thebbb. the pen is longer
Thebbb the note series is supposed to have a pen
@@thebbb. The note 10 and 10+ also have much more vibrant screens than the s series and the 10+ has a bigger battery than all of them
It wasn't courage, it was greed. It was to sell more wireless headphones (Airpods and Beats)
Is it convenient that they just happen to start selling AirPods at the same time they remove the headphone jack, of course! It’s a business strategy. But it’s not like they’re forcing you to buy AirPods or beats with the iPhone, there are so many other Bluetooth earbuds/headphones. If they made their own licensed wireless standard and the iPhone could only use that, then it’s a different story.
Dont buy.
Poetic ,clap.
Well I hope you realize they are a business company. They’ll squeeze money in all areas
Well said 👏🏾
Imagine making fun of a company for removing it's headphone jack and you do the same and get called out by some guy on the internet
Just got the S10 cause my old phone broke and I was so relieved then I found out that it still has the jack. Headphone jacks for the win!
I hate the idea of having to charge my headsets before using them that's why the headphone jack is still important to me
Yeah, why get rid of such a simple and useful invention?
By the way, I am listening to this very video on jacked headphones!
The case for my headphones charges my headphones. It's also easier to carry than wired headphones. You can also get a USB C or lightening headphones.
@@dreamdiscounts
Your first sentence made no sense.
It will only get better over time ... we need to move to a better more wireless future. In about 5-6 years wireless earbuds will sound 100000% better then e headphone jack earbuds.
@@SpookySlash
In the meantime, leave us our jack headphones and let us move on in our own time.
There's no fall. A lot of people are still using it
Still using with already purchased devices. But there is a fall because new phones will no longer have them. Product development focuses on devices without headphone jack.
new phones still have its headphone jack. so i think still its relevant as of today. the word "fall" in headphone jack is a joke.
It's getting out dated quickly tho
Never seen somebody since 2018 wearing wired earphones😂
Man people commenting here are stupid as hell, I just ordered my Pixel 4a which has a headphone jack, y'all stupid because you fall for companies making you pay more
I still prefer headphones with wires. Especially in crowded area while im commuting. Its hard when your earbuds drop in a crowded place.
Apple: create a problem then sell the solution to the "problem"
"Thickest part of the phone is the headphone jack"
iPhone has camera bump
Then you want an headphone bump??
@@meow.j i have no problem with headphone bump.
@@Private.R lol hahahhaha
Gavin so you’d rather have headphone jack over camera?
Nikunj Mundra if the goal for removing the headphone jack was to make the phone thinner, then why have a camera bump?
I hate charging bluetooth headphones. I have bluetooth headphones but I still prefer using an audio jack especially on the long flights.
How do you charge your phone? Why don't you charge your headphones when you charge your phone? They charge quicker and last longer.
@@nicktubby9710 Are you stupid? If you're on a long flight the battery on a headset will die and you can't charge at the same time.
no bluetooth charger? no headphone usability.. how convenient!
Chibi Momo Rusty yeah.. had to buy 2 Bluetooth headphones so I could listen to my music on Long flights.. what a waste of money tbh..
@@nicktubby9710 Oh idk, because I often charge my phone when I'm in bed in the afternoon and watching videos and such. Y'know things that require headphones.
When I'm looking for a new phone, the first thing I look for is a headphone jack. I'm not paying 200$ for a pair of ear buds that are the size of a quarter and get lost just as quickly. Especially not when I can get a pair that are attached to each other, don't need charging and can be replaced for 2$
Headphone jack hasn't failed, it's just a temporary setback
There is a big difference between innovation and plain greedy
samsung is both
@@borkmaster2726 iphone is only half, apple doesnt innovate anymore
@@Neiva71 if so, then Samsung is losing big bucks, cause I don't think that these galaxy buds of them will sell great.
what are you talking about? If they make a phone without a headphone jack, you are not forced to purchase it. The fact that people purchased it proves that it is innovation, there was a demand for it.
@@Neiva71 are you dumb? There's literally hundreds of phones on the market (as the video states) that still have headphone jacks, and people choose to buy the ones without them, it's the free market.
I love how they finish by saying that a 500$ phone is more than enough for the average person. But the average person can't afford a 500$ phone.
yeah but the average person is also terrible with money and will still buy it...
He was talking about the people who can afford at least the $500 phones. Not the beggars.
Yeah it should be $200 actually.
Or even 50 bucks.
I live a minimum wage life and i bought a refurbished iphone 7 red for 290 (including a charging case)
If headphone jack isn't enough of a shock, then welcome to Apple 2020 when they will not provide a charging brick for their iphone 12 in the box.
Wait really?
It's true for Samsung as well
@@persephone9307 yes in 12 pro max it was removed
@@persephone9307 Yes and it's for Samsung also. Chargers sold separately
*Apple:* Put wired headphones behind a paywall
*Also Apple:* mOaR cAmeRaS LoL!!!
HURR THINK DIFFERENT
Just because one company makes a bad decision to remove the headphone jack, does not make it okay
erice lol why do people care about this jack
@@julian9231 Are you stupid or deaf? Read the comments and watch the vid moron, wireless sounds like garbage and doesn't have the latency or battery life. Enjoy being a mindless consumer!
iwill forever dislike Apple for this
Lance Boyle I thought the same until I got wireless earphones. The sound quality is great, and range is great too. 0 noticeable latency and I just charge them at night with my phone. Battery lasts the whole day.
@@ruiwang657 lol the whole day more like a couple hours, I've used airpods and sony BT headsets and all of them had delay with movies and games. The customer should decide what they want not companies forcing them.
I prefer the wired earphones cause having to charge earphones sounds like a pain in the ass
It is. I still have wired headphones when the freaking thing dies, I don't like wireless for that reason too
You can still have wired headphones using USB C port.
Not really, I can charge my SOL REPUBLIC Air headphones in one hour for 13 hours of music. My Bose Quiet Comfort Q35 headphones charge in 2 hours for 2 days of heavy usage.
@@djdigital3806 bluetooth consumes battery life fairly quick
@@Silrak50 My Sol Republic Air headphones last for 2 days on a full charge. The Bose Quiet Comfort Q35 headphones last for 15 hours. I play them at full power. I also own a conventional pair of Sol Republic wired headphones for my mixer. When I'm on the road I don't need the wire, I tend to break them.
A phone without a headphone jack is a deal-breaker for me. I NEED a headphone jack, Period.
Any phone that doesn't have a headphone jack is automatically dead to me. It is non-negotiable. It's about respecting your customer over your own greed.
The thing is while it made sense to remove the floppy drive, it's simply not the same with the headphone jack. The wired headphones are still superior to Bluetooth ones and don't need recharging and don't have a battery that will die and make the (Bluetooth) headphone useless.
The floppy drive was available as a corded external device, and it was bulky. Eliminating the floppy was not eliminating the convenient port for an external floppy drive. The headphone jack is neither complicated nor bulky. There was no need to get rid of it, other than corporate greed. And it wasn't just for headphones. It was to make your phone into a portable internet radio that could easily be plugged into amplified speakers or a stereo receiver/amplifier. The headphone outlet very easily feeds a line-level input to a stereo, with a simple Y adapter cable.
@ben yosep
Using a dongle is so easy, after a user has lost it? My tiny smart-phone has all of those features, that they supposedly no longer have room for. And my phone can charge and tune in internet-streamed radio stations, and feed an amplifier or speaker at the same time.
How are they superior? Bluetooth has better sound and are wireless
@@blacklyfe5543 Come on, get back to the topic, which was bashing greedy corporations for doing away with good features that much of the public still wants. I am still mad about the loss of the headphone jack, and I don't even have an iPhone. It is the principle of the thing, the greedy exploitative corporation.
@@blacklyfe5543 Bluetooth devices use compression to save bandwidth so the quality will suffer. Plus if you ever have pairing issues you might think twice about using Bluetooth headphones. Plus a wired headphone can work with many devices not just your phone. My friend still uses a wired headset on his DJ equipment and he still use that headset on his phone.
Why do we need a headphone jack? …. "battery low" ……."battery low"...…"powering off"
Heather Brenner mhm
Literally I I forget to charge my Bluetooth and instead of being able to hear my music all I hear is "battery low.... Battery low..." Like omfg
My headphones last a long time and charge in less than ten minutes so...
Dodger the Crocodile yeah but you still have to charge it
1dogissky Yeah but It barley matters imo
In a couple years there’ll be a video called “The Rise and Fall.. and Rise Again of the Headphone Jack.”
Doesn't seem like it. Wireless headphones/earbuds have become cheaper and cheaper and at the same time better and better.
Yet the world's thinnest phone ever, has headphone jack
I'm not buying any phone without a jack except as an absolute last resort.

I like my wireless ear buds, it's very very practical, especially for going outside, but wired still the best when I'm playing game or when i don't want to deal with charging, and want better sound quality
Truth is wired headphones are the best
“Bluetooth sucks”.

Path of Bitcoin POB newflash phone with headphone jack also supports bluetooth and you could still use bluetooth. It doesn treally eliminate ur option for using an alternative.
@@midnightfun1277 It takes a bold move to get people to move away from the old standard. Glad we don't have floppies anymore. You got to see the future. When the leader makes a statement everyone follows... and 5 years down the road bluetooth headphones dramatically increase their capabilities... to the point to where people stop caring so much about what used to be... I still occasionally see people with flip phones...
And good FM antenna
@@matudavis6034 The future of eliminating options, that's what you want exactly. Floppies got replaced with better techs like CD, SD card, USB thumb drive, external hard drive and cloud storage so it's fine because we have options to use some of them. Bluetooth headphone is not really replacing the universal headphone jack when you look outside of smartphone market. Not even USB-C could replace the headphone jack.
Besides, Bluetooth headphones are still expensive and have lower sound quality. For some demographics that prioritized sound quality, cheap hardware and convenience of plug and play with no concern about battery life, the headphone jack still has a reason to exist.
Wireless still cant match the quality of 3.5mm
Companies have no idea exactly how to match the quality!
Flac audio is lossless
For me its not even audio quality, its just the convenience of not having to charge my headphones and being able to listen whenever I want to.

Samsung says that it removed the headphone jack to provide more room for powerful battery! yet the battery life is poor compared to iPhones
There is no fall.
Brands simply ditched it to force consumers to buy their expensive bluetooth earphones.
I think the mentality with most, if not all smartphone companies these days is "If it ain't broke don't fix it unless it makes us money"
I dont what the hell you all talking about. I still use my wired headphones.
Fall? FALL? There's a strong consumer demand for the headphone jack! Companies don't wanna put it in because of the extra money they make by forcing users to buy Bluetooth earphones and adapter cables.
If a phone doesn't have a headphone jack and microSD slot I'm not buying it no matter how good the phone is.
"The removal of the headphone Jack also helped the iPhone receive the ip67" meanwhile the galaxy s7 (about 6 months older) had a headphone Jack and had an ip68!
that makes no since then.
@@nicoletaylor2880 Yea...
Even better (or worse)......The Galaxy S5 had a headphone jack AND A REMOVABLE BATTERY......while being waterproof as well.
Apple is full of bs
Even better than that the Sony Xperia z back in 2012 had ip certification while having a headphone jack!
I have rejected buying two phones due to the lack of a headphone jack. I'm happy to come down the range to get the headphone jack. By the way, put the FM radios back in the phones!
I remember 3 years ago where I was doing the audio for a live event and there was a "kpop dance battle" where people could bring their own music through their phones. I simply connected a headphone-jack cable to my mixer and people could play their tunes over the PA. This worked perfectly until someone came with an Iphone 7....
So I bought a bluetooth audio receiver because of this, but this introduced a huge problem: it has no security. This means that anyone who ever connected to the receiver, could take over the audio feed from within the audience, disrupting the ongoing act. With the headphone jack you don't have this problem! Only the phone connected to the cable can play audio! Hell! In pro audio we still use 6,35mm jacks!
Or in arcades where the rhythm game cabines offer headphone amps: simply plug in the cable and you have that game's audio on your headphones. Well try that with bluetooth! 8 different cabs all sending differen signals and spectators who can ruin your game by connecting to you cab's bluetooth transmitter. It's a mess!
So honestly, where I appreciate the developments in bluetooth technology. There are several situations where the headphone jack is just king!
There are plenty of phones with a headphone jack that are reliably waterproof. that argument doesn't fly
My Samsung s7, for instance.
I had the S7 ( it fell on concrete and cracked the screen unfortunately) and you could take video underwater
I love my headphone Jack, anyone else
same
Same Huawei still has it
yup it’s better to untangle the wires that only takes less than 10 secs rather than hearing battery low (and suffer from “potentially” radiation issues) lol
@Naif M I would say keep a hold of it as long as possible hoping it still works. We can all save allot of money by hanging onto or phones for that little longer.
enjoy it while you can!
it's going away real fast. LOL
I’m using S9+ with the headphone jack.
I don't see any fall, people still use in large content. Cheaper, no charging, easier to swap, can hear music while transferring files from Bluetooth, availability and less chance of it getting lost.
The headphone jack may have disappeared from smartphones but is far from dead. There is nothing more reliable than a good ole pair of wired headphones. No batteries required!!!
I hate remembering to charge headphones
true the constant worrying that your wireless headphones may die out in a few hours.
You will never enjoy hifi audio today without wired headphones. If you still have a v20 from LG hold on to that phone.
Wired headphones still exist. They just plug into a different port.
My Bluetooth headphones died when I was watching FMAB and the charger was broken, the headphone jack is a blessing to me right now

Sony Xperia 1 III
@@crowbirdryuell my favourite phone of all time
I will personally never buy a device without the headphone jack
they just invented a new market by removing this jack.
are you seriously asking why they did it?
common sense is no longer common
Exactly! Wireless earphones are literally 5-10x more expensive, require a charging case, and are easier to lose.
I'm listening to this using a headphone jack.
So pretty💗
You two commenting are disgusting creeps. You think women would ever be interested in you, the way you creep on them?

Howdy fellow wired.
Me too
Wired Headphones have a better sound quality that wireless ones that have very poor quality. So, by removing the headphone Jack, people are now forced to go for wireless Listening, most likely Bluetooth Speakers which connect wirelessly. Unfortunately even those don't have very good sound quality.
I'm using a Headphone Jack to listen to the audio of this video.
It´s not about price. The fact that I don´t need to worry about charging one more thing in my daily routine makes wired headphones unbeatable. Simple as that.
True dat
Literally how I feel. Also, wired headphones are a lot less easier to freaking lose.
When your house is a charging station. You won’t really care about it anymore
I mean my AirPods are nearly 18 months old and I charge them like twice to 3 times a week with HEAVY usage
Stop fixing whats not broken.
Wireless headphone makes life worse
A physical audio jack and wire is universal, time tested and has been through multiple wars.... Just saying
@Bergen Pohl you're not wrong but false equivalence also horses got replaced by significantly faster better automobiles
Mine broke yesterday.
@@nntflow7058 trrs ? I'll fix it for ya if you want
2030 - Sir you gotta pay more for the display ,it doesn't come along with the phone
Wireless headphones are basically a red flag on a person.
What that's crazy
I think that Samsung must bring back the headphone jack + SD Card too, or they'll lose many consumers.
joryboyfpf408 they won’t, because what’s the alternative? Who has a headphone jack?
They have the SD card slot though.
I wont buy phone without headphone jack.i use it everyday on s9 plus.i rarely use my ulevel pro wireless headphone.
Get some sony wh-1000xm3 and they still have sd card slot not going anywhere
I would agree with the sentiment. While there are not that many in my opinion, there are some people who want a headphone jack. Why exclude part of your customer base for a marginal gain?
Let's not buy phones without headphone jacks so they will know...
are you kidding, people are Apple junkies. Maybe they can resist Samsung, but Apple says "give me your money" and they all can't pull out their wallets fast enough.
Ali Devrim OGUZ but no one's gonna give up Apple... That brand has so much power, that they've been selling Iphones over $2000 even though it costs Apple $20 to make. I guess people just wont give it up!
To be honest wireless headphones are so much more convenient and easy to use. I have a phone with headphone jack but I still use a Bluetooth headphone
@@MrHarsh3600 I don't want people to get in my phone via Bluetooth. My headphones dying during a long airplane flight or car ride, people taking my headphones off of my head and running away. Wired is best.
Just vote with your wallet, for me I've ditched the habit of buying flagship top phones 2 years ago.
So many affordable but excellent phones out there anyways.
3.5 for life, many great phones still got it
Unfortunately I still use the headphone jack. That's why I ditched the iPhone. I try not to use the Bluetooth headphones. I personally believe wireless Bluetooth headphones are getting me deaf. Headphones with a headphone jack is an important part to have.
Um bluetooth = battery dependency. Boo👎
I have a bluetooth headphone and i have a wired headphone...cause thats what you need to listen to music worry free. 😐

True story!
or you can plug your bluetooth headphones
if you use bluetooth headphone and watch video, there's a slight lag
True it has so many harmful effects like radiation.....
“Removing the headphone jack was not a pro-consumer move.” ... That is good journalism. Thank you, CNBC. These companies will be losing my business.
The raise and fall of the "rise and fall" video.
July-2021, India, every phone under 300$ here have headphone jack. I hope they continue it.
my house is running out of power sockets
This comment is very underrated. By the time you plug in all of these devices there is no room for the major things that really matter like TVs or lamps, etc. So much for a convenient life.
You can buy power strips
We need wireless charges built in walls
@@VadimBolshakov In order to transmit power wirelessly, you need two inductor coils. One for transmitting power and other for receiving power. They both create a electromagnetic field that allows power to be transmitted. The only problem is that they're inefficient and only works well of the coils are close next to each other.
B R your house is outdated then.
These days hoses even come with usb ports...
