My last phone purchase went something like this:

"What phones do you have with a headphone jack?"

"Uh, I don't think any. Maybe one? I'd have to look."

"I'll take that one."

"But we--"

"Only spec that matters is a headphone jack."

"There's bluetoo--"

"Headphone jack."

    Gotta look for either a budget or non-major brand phone. I went with an Asus phone for my last upgrade (previous was an LG V60). Sony Xperia and some of the Chinese 'gaming' phones also have them.

    Yep a bottom of the barrel phone from a no-name brand will still have an audio jack...

    But the fucking Pixel line doesn't. Pixels are the only real non-dogshit phone if you want a secure OS.

    Sometimes you have to choose between two important things.

    Yeah it sucks. Though the usb-c converters will actually work on anything with USB-C

    I have the slightly bigger green adapter that does charge and 3.5 jack and it's 32 bit/384khz. And the two tips are magnetic so you can split it. It sounds great with my IEMs

    Right? This — and literally nothing but this — is what all the outrage is about. Still, none of my business; everyone can buy whatever phones they want.
