According to well-acclaimed leakster LlabTooFeR, the HTC U 11 will not feature a headphone jack, but instead, HTC will include a USB-C to 3.5mm headphone jack adapter so you can still use your favorite pair of wired headphones.

Believe it or not, the HTC Bolt (HTC 10 Evo, in other markets) didn’t come with an adapter, though one was offered for free. In the HTC U Ultra’s case (as well as the HTC Bolt’s), there was no headphone adapter in the box, though there was a pair of HTC’s Usonic earbuds with a USB-Type C connector.

The HTC U 11 is to be announced in Taipei on Tuesday, May 16 and will feature a squeezable frame that interprets gestures based on taps, swipes, and applied pressure. If you haven’t already, check out the specs that leaked off the retail box.

Stupid move if you ask me. I'm a true HTC fan and all my phones the last 6-7 years are HTC but this move is really dumb. So I cannot connect my phone to the PC to transfer files and listen to music on my headset at the same time.
Nor I will be able to listen to my music or watch a movie with my headset while charging the phone.
