On a recent post, there were a lot of comments, which said that they were missing the headphones on newer mobile devices.
How many actually use the headphone jack?
I ask, because I have one on my phone, since I really wanted one, but I rarely use it. Like Tops 1/Month.
I used to use it daily until I broke my last phone with a headphone jack. I switched to a usb-c adapter, but that lasted all of one week before it stopped working. (phone would only recognize it as an unknown device that the phone needed to charge…)
Reluctantly I switched to a free pair of basic wireless headphones and was pleasantly surprised with the convenience and battery life. Used those for 6ish months before buying a nice set from Raycon (mostly because of a promo code from a YouTuber). That added Active Noise Cancelation, Awareness mode (boost surroundings instead of suppressing them), and wireless charging the case. I’ve been really quite happy with them since.
Now I just keep a usb-c to aux adapter with each stereo/set of speakers that I may plug my phome into. I’d like to find a simple Bluetooth receiver that then outputs to aux.
