Yeah, for me it's the "additional thing". I have a few different pairs of headphones depending on location and purpose. They're cheap, effective, and easily replaced if they fail. Having another doodad is just not appealing, whether I try to keep one on the phone at all times or buy a bunch that I add and remove from the headphones depending on what I'm using them for.
I've stuck with the Pixel A series precisely because of the headphone jack. I'm sad to see that once again Google is trying to remove it: https://www.theverge.com/2022/5/11/23067702/google-pixel-6a-headphone-jack https://www.theverge.com/2022/5/11/23067702/google-pixel-6a-...
- girvo 5y agoMy solution was to just leave the lighting-to-3.5mm adapter attached to my headphones, rather than my phone. But I was lucky enough that I had two dongles spare and only two sets of wired headphones I cared about. Works well though.
- harha 5y agoIf they at least had USB-C, then you could use it on your laptop (or at least try, never sure if any USB-C adaptors ever work)
- sdoering 5y agoThey do. At least mine on a MacBook Pro as well as a Lenovo Yoga and a Dell XPS 13. I bought a totally cheap no name one when I got a company phone without audio jack. Since then I have used it on many different machines as well as (Android) phones. The adapter stays with the headphones as I just would loose it otherwise. Edit: Typo
