I see a lot of people complaining that the Fairphone 6 doesn’t have an Aux jack.

Just use an adapter cable.

A 3.5mm Aux jack takes up a significant amount of space just to connect a few wires that could be connected through USB-C anyway, that space could be used for a bigger battery.

Even if there was a good enough reason to keep Aux it should be 2.5mm Aux and not the usual 3.5 as it does exactly the same thing but uses less space

    But does it charge the phone while you listen?

        I assume you have another extender from the usb-a to a power socket, or do you sit against the wall/outlet and listen?

          This particular cable is more intended for connecting to a stereo + charger, so those would be close together.

          I’m mainly using it with one of these stereos, but it would be good in a car too:

          If you want to connect headphones+charge, the dongle style adapters may be a better fit:

          Though you could use a usb or aux extension on either of the shorter ends of the first cable I showed if you wanted too.
