No earphone jack again. That's a bit sad. Even though I mainly use BLT earbuds, I still sometimes wish I could use my wired headphones. It's just a small inconvenience

I had a phone without before, that one came with a simple cheap passive adapter for USB-C to 3.5mm headset. You lose out on using headphones while charging, but other than that I was never really inconvenienced...

You also have to remember to have that adapter with you

An issue shared with the headphones themselves

[–] Fermion@feddit.nl 21 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I just leave the adapter plugged into the headphones. Then there's nothing extra to manage.

If you need to plug the headphones into the adapter, you can just leave them plugged in after disconnecting from the phone

This way, the headphones almost become ones with USB-C connectors than auxiliary barrels.
