No jack? Send it back.
I too am curious, imo the headphone jack removal was the first sign of enshitification.
Genuinely question. If you want something with a modern high performance processor what options do you have that also include a jack?
I think Sony Xperia phones.

Snapdragon 8 Elite. Release May 13, 2025.
How can we convince Sony to open the platform for third party os's cuz I'm not buying something with slacking security updates in this age
I think they're pretty open? Atleast I've seen a few good custom roms for Sony Phones, like DivestOS (before it died). I don't know if they stopped doing that recently.
Makes little difference now since Xperia abandoned the US entirely -- but the last few years they were in the US, Xperia US devices were locked down.
Do you own a pair of wireless headphones?
