In the EU, I'm not headphones with jacks will be allowed to be sold (Arstechnica).

Laptops get until April 2026 to comply, but most other things—phones, tablets, handheld gaming devices, computer accessories, and wireless headphones—will have to be powered by USB-C to be sold inside the EU from now on.

I think it's only a matter of time until phones with dual or triple USB-C start emerging.

    I don't see how this has anything to do with blocking headphones w/ jacks, this only says wireless headphones have to be powered by USB-C. I've had wireless headphones that also have a jack so you can still use the headphones if the battery dies, and I also have headphones without power whatsoever and only work with a jack.
