A leaked component allegedly for the iPhone 7 still contains a headphone jack, reports Nowhereelse.
The part, which surfaced on Weibo, differs greatly from the one found in the current iPhone 6s, as well as, the iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone 6, and iPhone 6 Plus.
One theory suggested by the site is that the iPhone 7 would retain a headphone jack but the iPhone 7 Plus would drop the port in favor of a Lightning port connection for headphones. It's also been reported that the rumored dual lens camera would be an iPhone 7 Plus exclusive.

Even without the jack, you'd be able to still use headphones with a cord, you'll just have to plug it into the Lightning adapter. Not that big a deal.

They'd be mad to get rid of the jack, I'll stick my 6 if they do that.

Apple should keep the headphone jack

I always knew it would. It's too soon of a change they know a lot of people wouldn't buy it and that would make them look bad especially after the sales drop

Maybe it will still have a headphone jack after all.
