Alternatively, if your current phone doesn't have a headphone jack, do you wish it did?

I thought I did and was so against manufacturers removong them. Until I got Airpods. So much better. Perfect ear fit like no other. No cable mess. Instant auto connect between devices. I can ping them. And they’ve held up longer than any cable headphones as well, whose cables always break. And they get tangled. I’ve had the Airpods for three years now and they still hold battery for a full day use for me. Charging them fully takes like 15 minutes.

I’m sure there are similarly good headphones for other brands, this is just my own experience with Airpods.

In case I must have a cable for some reason I can plug in a tiny 3,5mm adapter through the charging port. So that’s not a problem either.

Also the phone has better water and dust resistance with one port less.

I guarantee the comments on this thread are hilarious biased to the point of being echos of echos in this chamber.

The relationship I have work my phone is that I don't necessarily have a phone that I can use as a music player, as much as I have a music player/internet device that I can call with.

I have an adapter that splits so I can charge my phone while I talk on a headset while working. Does that count?

No.

I stopped using wired headsets loooong before they started taking them off...my HP iPaq had Bluetooth and my iPod didn't--that's when I bought my first Bluetooth headset.

Nope. I was already switching away from wired headphones anyway because they're annoying to keep around.

Admittedly I tend to always see as a bad thing whenever I see phone models without headphone jacks, that said for the last five years I've been using phones without headphone jacks and using the wired headphones they came with is enough for the few times I need to use them.
