You should NOT drill a hole in your iPhone 7 to make a headphone jack

This is what NOT to do if you want an iPhone 7 with a headphone jack – so step away from the drill.

But a YouTube hoax appears to have convinced some iPhone users to destroy their brand new devices, all in the name of wired headphones.

It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that drilling a hole into most things, especially smartphones, is not going to end well.
And regular prankster, TechRax, has a reputation for fooling iPhone lovers.
Most people laugh and move on to the next clip, but there are a select few who prove Darwin was on to something.

In the comments below the video, a number of people appear to have missed the point, picked up a power tool, and have complained about their now defunct phones.

One viewer wrote: ‘I drilled it in but for some reason my phone won’t turn on or charge, is there a software or app I need to install?’
Another added: ‘Uhhh I have a problem. My phone won’t turn on and the headphone jack didn’t work. Someone please tell me what to do.’

TechRax have also been known to freeze an iPhone in a block of Coca Cola, smash it in with a sledgehammer, and dump it in liquid nitrogen – you get the idea.

But there’s still a chance someone will be heading straight to the Genius Bar after watching this – now that’s something we’d like to see.
