I've never really understood the argument against headphone jacks. I can still use Bluetooth headphones with my phone. I can also use wired headphones and aux cables on my phone. Why would you want less features

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'd be fine if they gave us another USB C port, but inability to listen and charge the phone at the same time without using Bluetooth (which also needs to be charged) grinds my gears.

You can get a dongle that lets you charge and plug in headphones at the same time.

Just buy another piece of hardware which shouldn't be necessary at all

They aren't supporting the jack removal from what I can see, simply suggested a solution that one can easily do. No need to be hard on them for that.

There are too many dongles in my life.

I'm not arguing against it, just not particularly arguing for it. Out of all the removed features, I'd want the IR blaster back. I can't do that with Bluetooth.

Seems like FM/AM (did anyone do one of those?) Would be cool too
