Fairphone’s latest repairable device is for people who hate saying goodbye to an old smartphone more than they like buying a new one.

No headphone jack means fairphone now encourage Bluetooth earbuds and electronic waste.

They're dead to me.

Man I watched that whole video, it has nothing to do with the headphone jack. It's about how fairphone releases repair schematics. The title is clickbait, he still says "the removal of the headphone jack is still bullshit and I stand by that, but they sure do release schematics which is nice".
