      I don’t see the big deal about headphone jacks. If you really want wired headphones, stick a dongle on the end of the cable and leave it there. It’s almost exactly the same, except you can’t charge and listen at the same time - not really something I would worry about.

        All this accomplishes is an unnecessary inconvenience. I shouldn’t have to lug additional cables, and far more importantly the choice between Wired/Wireless should be up to me, not the manufacturer

          That USBC dongle will sound much much better than the weak DAC they’d pair with the headphone jack anyway.

          I have a headphone jack on my 4a but I still use the dongle because the dongle can actually drive speakers.
