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.

    There’s probably a lot of selection bias going on right now, but I feel compelled to say “I won’t buy a phone without a jack”.

    The convenience of not having to charge headphones is great. I use them so infrequently that when I pull them out on a trip, I don’t want to go “ah shit, forgot to charge them”. But on long trips, bluetooth kills my battery so jack is the only way to go for me.
