My current phone lacks a headphone jack and I hate it. It would be okay if it was replaced with two usb c ports, but there's only one which means I either choose between headphones or charging, or I must use an adapter. Or wireless, but I don't want yet another fucking battery to charge.

I used to be against losing the headphone jack, but now I'm without one, I honestly don't miss it.

No more wires getting caught, tangled or damaged and the sound quality is just as good unless you're an audio engineer.

True...BT codecs these days are almost hi-res compatible, why to even bother when actually audiophiles use external DAC.
