Any flagship you want. Most have great build quality now a days! Just pick size and the type of skin (functionality and looks) you want.

I'm sorry that my desire for an audio jack has upset so many people.

This was certainly not my intention, at the same time, I can't just buy an iPhone 7 because you want me to.

Also: Mother of god this is getting nutty.

BTW: looks like the P9 is the direction I'm going to go.

And I'm sorry you have to shoot yourself in the foot for something you seem to be quite happy with otherwise just to make a silly point/statement that spites nothing but yourself.

I'm going to feel especially sorry when you regret it all later.

Not sure if anyone mentioned it but why not consider the iPhone 6S. It has everything that you need and is the next best iPhone.

I don't want to have a long debate about the pros and cons of no audio jack, suffice it to say that Apple has excluded the audio jack and that is a deal breaker for me personally.

I have only had iPhones since 2007. I imported the 1st gen model into SA because it never launched here, I have only had iPhones since (I once bought an Experia but it only lasted a month or two...)

I don't want to hate on Apple for this move - it's their thing but this is where I get off this particular ride.

My question is: what is the most 'iPhone like' phone that has an audio jack? I know that it will be Android, I'm at peace with this (almost) but I'd like something sleek with a great build quality and good features.

So Samsung is out, ugly ass phones the lot of them.

I'm considering the Huwaei P9. Any other ideas?

Upgrade due in three months.

S7Edge.

Thinking of dumping my S7 edge Duos and getting a OnePlus 3.

Can't live with the 32GB memory of the S7 edge, and it is not expandable as the slot is used by a sim card.

OnePlus 3 would be great for the OP, except that you would have to buy it cash.

What takes up the space?

The second sim card...

Yes, the second sim card takes up the SD card slot - really poor design.

But many of the new phones are like this, you need to get a dual sim phone with a dedicated SD card slot.

An example of the latter is the LG V20.
