Alternatively, if your current phone doesn't have a headphone jack, do you wish it did?

I have too many pairs of headphones and have been buying more wired ones rather than Bluetooth as they just don't last as long (they are convenient, I'll admit).

The 3.5mm Jack is just so handy to have ratger than a dongle (SD card for storing all the music helps too).

I used to have the opposite issue. It was always the wire right near the jack that would wear out from having my phone in my pocket so my wired ear pods would always wear out in less than a year. Then I got a set of Bluetooth earbuds that had a wire between them. They lasted 2-3 years before the wire wore out. Now I’ve got a set of fully wireless buds and they’ve so far lasted longer than any other ones I’ve had.

Fair point, I also make a point of only buying ones that have a removable cable for that reason.

I did also recently, as a geeky project, get some Mackie mc-100 headphones and mod them to take a removable 3.5mm cable.
