I prefer the headphone jack to be Bluetooth, honestly... Haven't had a physical port in many years and found I didn't miss it at all

Psst.... imma let you in on a secret. You can have a headphone jack, AND Bluetooth. They're not mutually exclusive.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Sure

But why would I care if I'm not going to use it?

Honestly, I don't care if all my phones going forward start having the port again, I'm sure it'll make a lot of people happy, but I'll still likely be using Bluetooth because it's just more convenient for me

Which was the point. That I feel like you missed. Or misinterpreted. Either way... Cool?

Lucky. I have collected a fair bit of audio gear that use very frequently. The dongles dislodge from the charging port too easily to be useful. I do use BT dac/amps but most of the time I'm in too much of a hurry to bother and I rely on the jack almost entirely.
