(Posting this here rather than [email protected] as it’s a quite general question)

I had a look at the GSM Arena phone finder, and it the choice is getting smaller and smaller every year (only 43 phones from 2023, reviewed by the site, had a jack)

The remaining ones are mostly

  • Xiaomi Redmi
  • Zenfones
  • Sony
  • Samsung entry range

So, has everyone switched to Bluetooth / USB-C dongles, or are there still a few people holding to the jack until the very end?

      It’s very good but very expensive and the software support is not defined (but previous ones have been 2 years of security updates, which is terrible). I’m hoping Lineage OS will extend the usefulness or I may regret it. I couldn’t find another phone that had microSD and headphone jack that I wanted.
