When my phone had one, I used it probably every day.
I still miss it. All Bluetooth buds I've used have this stupid quirk in Teams, for example, where a call will interrupt the meeting and even if I immediately hang up, it takes like 2-5 seconds for Teams to switch back to Bluetooth. I never had this issue with an aux jack.
I also had a problem the other day where my Bluetooth buds just would. not. connect. for some stupid reason despite having worked OK for a week prior. On my phone with an aux jack that was never a problem.
For music, I used to use a really nice set of Sennheiser's with my phone, and while I'm no audiophile, I swear using an adapter just isn't the same (even though I know technically it should support the same bandwidth).
Another thing I really miss are phones that came with IR Blasters.
