As someone who currently uses headphones throughout pretty much all his free time, yes I use wired whenever possible and my current phone was one I got because of the headphone jack. Last thing I want is to have to stop listening to whatever I'm listening to all because my bluetooth headphones need a charge.
Currently I'm stuck with a pair of shitty dollar store headphones, but they are so much better than the wireless ones I have because of just how long I can enjoy music, videos, etcetera, without needing to worry when my headphone battery needs charged. A headphone jack is extremely important to me.
Out of curiosity, would a phone with a USB C to 3.5mm mini Jack be an acceptable compromise?
How do you charge the phone while using that?
It could possibly be an acceptable compromise. Though I prefer the jack to be part of the phone so that way it's one less accessory I have to worry about losing or accidentally destroying.
Absolutely, I agree completely, personally I hate the adapter because of that reason. I lose literally everything Iโm capable of losing.
