Thinking back at the incremental efforts that led to up to this does demonstrate a lot of planning and preparing that wasn't such a smooth transition. With the S8 there was talks of Samsung "copying Apple and dropping the headphone jack" but instead they went further with the audio multitasking capabilities and added the unique ability to split audio to individual channels each with their own volume controls, split an app's sound to an uninterruptable channel zero which is something I have Spotify set to by default.They added the ability to split one apps audio off to a Bluetooth speaker while the rest of the audio play locally or vice versa which is extremely handy for playing music to a Bluetooth speaker and still being able to use the phone nornally watch YouTube etc through the phone speakers.And recently my wife and I were in a plane and I realized I forgot to bring my headphone splitter. So we realized we could just use my note 8 who's screen was large enough for a movie for two, and has the unique capability to beam Bluetooth audio to two wireless headphones as once emulating a headphone splitter but even better and more comfortably actually.All this preparation pretty much satisfies all the needs I would have had for the audio jack EXCEPT for processing pro audio which I guess will works fine with dongles and USB splitters.All these audio multitasking features even got a plug in app called sound assistant that works as a hub to allow you to easily manage all your audio output per app per channel per wireless device etc.If it wasn't for all these efforts I probably would have switched to LG and although I'm still a little disappointed in retrospect it seems like it's been aong time coming and we've been well prepared.Just a perspective. If anyone has any questions on how all the pro audio features and all the capabilities unique to galaxies ask away and I'll help ya.
