Das Moto Z Force und das Moto Z Force Droid (in den USA exklusiv bei Verizon) stehen kurz vor der Markteinführung, obwohl das Lenovo-Unternehmen diese beiden neuen Geräte bereits vorgestellt hat. Das Moto Z Play hingegen ist eine preisgünstige Version der Headsets, die ebenfalls bald auf den Markt kommen wird. Die High-End-Geräte Moto Z Force und Moto Z werden keinen 3,5-mm-Kopfhöreranschluss haben, making them the world’s first headphone jackless phones, but, surprisingly, Motorola isn’t making that step with the Moto Z Play, a more budget-friendly version of the new modular flagship dessen Spezifikationen kürzlich durchgesickert sind. Einer zuverlässigen Quelle zufolge that’s given us the time and place of the Moto Z announcement before the unveilingDas Z Play wird dem neuen Trend nicht folgen und den 3,5-mm-Kopfhöreranschluss beibehalten.
Der Standort HalloMotoHK has leaked a photo at Google+ with the words “Z – Z Play – Z Force,” showing the bottom portion of each handset in the order in which they are named: first the Z, then the Moto Z Play, then the Moto Z Force. The Moto Z lacks the 3.5mm headphone jack, as does the Moto Z Force (the more shatter-resistant and ruggedized phone of the trio). There is a phone in the middle, and it has the hole where headphones are usually inserted. Yes, the Moto Z Play will feature the 3.5mm headphone jack, a move that brings it into conflict with the high-end handsets.
The photo shown doesn’t show anything else, except that the phone in question, the Moto Z Play, features the headphone jack. As a budget-friendly device, it’s understandable that Motorola would lead the headphone jack intact, since budget-friendly owners wouldn’t likely be able to afford wireless headphones (or, in many cases, wouldn’t want to). LG has some wireless headphones that cost around $70, which isn’t that terribly expensive when you consider that battery packs and battery cases often cost more than that. Still, it’s having the consumer in mind, who wants to save at any cost, that has motivated Motorola here — and that’s to be commended. Plus, some consumers prefer to not have to charge their headphones too, and wired headphones in the headphone jack are a perfect way to avoid having one more thing to charge. The high-end Z phones have already decided to ditch the headphone jack, and the upcoming iPhone 7 sieht bereit aus, sich ihnen anzuschließen.
