Samsung Senior Vice President Justin Denison just threw shade at Apple for (very annoyingly) getting rid of its headphone jack in favor of a dongle for the iPhone 7.

Denison was explaining the various features of the Galaxy Note 7 to the audience at Samsung's Unpacked event on Aug. 2. Among them are iris scanners, better cameras, a classy design and more security features (read our full preview here).

He then paused and said to the audience, "Do you wanna know what else it comes with? An audio jack."

The audience started to applaud, and Denison dramatically shrugged. "I'm just saying," he said.

We can all agree that a world without headphone jacks is going to be seriously annoying.
