Ive always hated phones without the 3.5mm and won't stop even if all phone manufacturers remove it
At least you can still get adapters for phones that don’t have it :)
Indeed, I don't really see the problem. Instead of a single use port you have a practically universal port. That's better, surely.
Yeah but it was never a matter of "insTeAD Of," it's in addition to, meaning you get to use the same favourite set of headpdones you use with literally every other device while keeping the practically universal port free for other purposes at the same time!!!! 🤯🤯🤯
Now isn't that wizard?
You can still do that with an adapter though?
Now here's the amazing bit: imagine being able to do that without needing to carry an additional thing around.
