Since the much-awaited launch of iPhone 7 in September this year, tech gigs are posting various review video of iPhone 7. One such video posted a week back demonstrated how to drill a hole in iPhone 7 for the headphone jack. This video was an instant hit with over ten million views.

According to a report by BBC news, one of the YouTube user 'TechRax' posted a video of this kind first. He placed his brand new iPhone 7 into a vice and drilled a hole in it with his 3.5mm driller.  The headphone jack does fit into the hole and of course, the iPhone was not working anymore. Surprisingly, many iPhone 7 user did try this drilling session with their iPhones. People have even commented on the video post stating that even they have tried this and it doesn't work.

The description of TechRax's video says that this his video is for those who don't want to spend $159 on a wireless AirPods or for those who doesn't want to take the pain of inserting the headphone to the adapter every time they wish to use headphones. TechRax's past video history suggest that he has a habit of posting such videos and taking a dig at technology, as reported by The Guardian.

Apple Inc. is known for its out of box thinking designed and released iPhone 7 without any headphone jack. iPhone 7 is the first phone ever without a headphone jack. It does have an adapter that lets the user plug in headphone through the lightning port. If sources are to be believed, then Apple is all set to release wireless earphones called AirPods by next month. Some iPhone 7 owners are rebelling Apple's decision to go without the headphone jacks and  this is the reason for such videos. Reported fortune.

Drilling iPhone 7 for headphone jacks doesn't seem like a solution. Apple should take a serious note of these videos by several iphone users as might suggest users views towards no headphone jacks.
