David, I think there are a few on this group who are deaf to your needs. I, too, am deaf, and use bilateral cochlear implants. What saddens me about the iPhone is that there is no built in function for cochlear users -- instead we have to buy a clip to connect to the iPhone. I personally use studio headphones with a 3.5 MM. That is why I am not going to upgrade to the iPhone seven. Requiring users of hearing aids to buy adapters is unfair as a whole. And I think Scott should apologize to you for calling you a troll simply because you voiced concerns. Perhaps consider writing to Apple about this, and perhaps consider not to upgrade until the product has been out for awhile to see how other hearing impaired users handle it. Vaughn
