The improvement over the 4 seems very minimal? I don't understand what justified this new version, it's just better specs without fixing or providing a different solution to notable issues like the size (a smaller version would have been great, the 4 is huge) or the absence of jack (didn't expect it, but could have been a pleasant surprise). Seems like a financial decision similar to any other phone maker and not very aligned with the sustainable values.

what is the motivation behind not adding jack

I think simplifying the design thinking that most of their non-nerd ecolo customers have moved passed this archaism. Eventually it was the main grudge against the FP4.
