I don't understand the complaint about a headphone jack. They make dongles for USBC to headphone. Plug it into your headphone and forget it's there.
If you need to power at the same time, buy a dongle with a splitter.
3.5 mm headphone jack is much ππ¦ππ ππππ more robust than USB-C port. You can slingshot your phone by the headphone cable, and both the phone and the cable will be fine.
USB-C socket gets slightly bent and you cannot charge your phone.
It's also at the bottom of the phone, so you cannot hold it normally, while the headphone jack is at the top.
I miss the audio jack and agree with you, but all my phones always had audio jack on the bottom not far from the USB port
Many of my past phones had the headphone jack on the bottom. I don't think there is a standard.
That's just more shit to carry. I don't want to have pockets overflowing with dongles.
The dongle stays plugged into the headphones don't it. You're carrying headphones and dongle as one piece.
Who the fuck is going out with their headphones plugged in 100% of the time?
I think what they mean is that you leave the dongle plugged into the headphone cable, not that you leave the dongle plugged into the phone.
Oh right
So your power/data USB C port can snap off?
How about we have the boys in engineering work up a more durable dedicated audio port for something that will be plugged in when on the go?
We can give it:
A solid, round metal plug for infinite 360-degree rotation, neutralizing cable-twist strain that would otherwise warp a rigid USB-C port.
A hollow-tunnel design with out the fragile internal circuit "tongue" found in USB-C, making it nearly impossible to snap or bend through accidental force.
And as a bonus, heavy-duty internal spring contacts that tolerate dirt and high insertion counts, and linear release mechanism so the cable will pop out cleanly during a violent tug instead of tearing up the phoneβs internal electronics.
We can call this MIRACLE as the 3.5mm headphone jack. The kids will love it!
