HMD is bringing its repairable phone initiative to the US with the Nokia G310, a $186 smartphone that’ll be available from T-Mobile and Metro by T-Mobile on August 24th. This is technically the third smartphone HMD has released with a design that makes it easier to replace commonly broken components like its battery and display, but its previous Nokia G22 and Nokia G42 were focused on European markets.

As with its previous repairable phones, HMD is partnering with iFixit to supply spare parts and repair guides for the G310.

At first I was also obsessed with a 3.5mm audio jack, then I bought a phone with only USB-C, and guess what, a simple adapter that was in the box, or available for $1 in dollar store, basically does the job. The USB-C plug has 4 wires for gnd/left/right/mic and I can plug any 3.5mm headset on my phone. The adapter is on my headphone for months and it makes no difference me plugging an audio jack or a usb-c plug.
