The removal of the headphone jack on the iPhone 8 is definitely frustrating. Though, the earbuds you received with your phone (in the original box) should be able to plug into the charging port on the bottom. If you have 3.5mm plug earbuds, you will have to purchase a dongle adaptor to use them with your iPhone.
