Apple removed 3.5mm headphone jack one iphone iteration early. Apple should have removed it on iphone 8 and not even iphone 7S. If all went well on iphone 8 than from iphone 8S, all iphone versions can drop it. For USB-C change, it is not same as impact-full as headphone jack because USB-C is already introduced in MACs and there is no fuss from consumers.
