I guess you do you. But it just sounds like you’re yelling at clouds to me when you could just have gotten over this by now. I’ve been using wired headphones with my usb-c port for years with no problem (phone about to hit 4 years, same dongle I’ve had for like 6 years, daily listening).
I cannot imagine hampering my phone choices to this degree (basically excluding like 90% of phones) just for a statement that will make no difference since the majority of people don’t even use wired headphones (so I’m a minority there since I do use wired, I’ve just learned that using a dongle is totally fine).
I cannot imagine hampering my phone choices to this
I doubt your lack of imagination is important enough to affect our decision making paradigms, but thanks anyway. I’m personally sick of being told that comprises like this are courageous, and that I should want something I know I do not.
I don’t really care if you buy a phone or not, I was just trying to understand how it makes logical sense to completely destroy your phone choices over something that has many easy solutions. If I made the headphone jack my hardline I could never buy a phone with anything I want.
To me it’s like saying you’re walking down a road, and there’s a boulder blocking it, so instead of walking around the boulder you yell at the sky hoping some great power will remove it.
By all means speak with your wallet or what have you, it just really seems like most people have moved past this and learned to use the multiple existing solution, and it’s also very unlikely phone manufacturers will bring back this port.
To me, not buying a phone without a 3.5mm is the way I get my voice heard. I am voting with my wallet against taking away features.
I do not care that I am a minority, and that most people are happy to use Bluetooth.
I have very good headphones and I do not want to think about charging them and I do not want to fiddle with dongles that I have to pay for either.
No 3.5, no buy. Period.
