I think the distinction is the Dec cpo shipments were before the change was made not to include them by Apple. Hence post Sept manufacture units that are shipping cpo now didn’t have them but units prior did. The unit I received was in mint condition with warranty to Dec 19, 2019.JackWhyte wrote: ↑ Apple stopped including the headphone dongle in all new iPhones awhile ago because they don't want you using cheap headphones instead of buying their vastly over-priced lightning junk.

It really is nickel and dime’ing by this company (Apple) that consumers appear to have had enough of.
Regardless this is still a hot deal for an iPhone 8 and $240 for the Huawei P20 also hot.
