Exactly. The real plea here is "bring back 3.5mm ports." I'm afraid of the day my old phone dies because I have this fear that even cheap-ass phones are going to abandon 3.5mm headphones for cheap, unreliable, garbage bluetooth trash.

Just double-checked. My current smartphone that I partially picked for it's 3.5mm socket does have built in FM radio that works great and only functions with earphones plugged in.
