We used to have earbuds that don't need to be charged because they had a headphone jack, didn't get lost so easily because they had a cord attached to a headphone jack, never lost the bluetooth connection because they had a headphone jack, and they cost less because they had a headphone jack. https://bsky.app/profile/daisyfm.bsky.social/post/3l3mfjc6sn62k
Literally every single phone I've had where I use a USB C headphone adapter, the audio function just stops working eventually. Charging is fine, but audio just quits. I don't even use the port to charge this phone, I use a pad, but the audio has stopped working through USB. It's not a replacement.
