At least for the next few years, I am pretty firm on needing a jack on my device.

I am currently using an LG v60, and while nice, it's starting to show its age.

Any suggestions on where to go next?

I was looking at the ROG phone, and while it does seem very nice, I feel like it is a bit much as I don't game on my device at all.

Are there any good phones I should be looking at?

Thanks!

GSM Arena has a "phone finder" tool that allows you to lookup phones with specific features. There are over 500 phones released in 2022 to present with a headphone jack. You can narrow that down a lot if you only look at phones with IPX8 water resistance.

Some options:

  • Sony Xperia 1 V (expensive)
  • Sony Xperia 10 V
  • Asus Zenfone 9
  • Samsung Galaxy Xcover6 Pro
  • Nokia XR21

I have tried that in the past, but I always found that I either got 150 results that were mostly Chinese junk phones or 3 results that were incredibly underpowered low range devices.

I will check it out again.

You can choose specific brands in the phone finder, so that should help get rid of the junk brands.
