Tell me about it! I still buy IEM's because of their incredible sound, yet I have to use dongle for my main phone. IEM brands have been also producing USB-C outputs, but yet not good IMO.
Lucky that I have an LG-vq40, which has audio jack, so I use it as a audio device.
Thicker phone than my main, yet has audio jack.
Yeah it's sad that LG didn't maintain that niche of high quality DAC jack phones. Also still stuck with my V30...
The headphone jack of my phone is still virgin.
I'm really mad that they removed my external antenna. Used to be, you could get better replacement antennas for your phone, or even replace a damaged one. All it takes is one bump or jiggle the wrong way, and the internal antenna for your phone gets disconnected, and now you need an entirely new phone. Removing the antenna socket was a cost cutting measure for phone manufacturers that ensures you have to replace the device earlier. Remember your first antenna phone? It probably lasted 5 years. Modern smartphones get churned out every 18 months. They've played us for fools.
My mom had a cool one that flashed when she got a phone call
wait, we need to dig it up and get our headphone jacks back. location, depth?
