Debate: Do we still need headphone jack on our phones? - page 3

Let's weigh the pros and cons of this topic.

Pros for the Aux Jack:

3.5mm Aux cord headphones are price effective

Better quality from wired headphones

Never need to charge the headphones

Can still charge your phone while having your headphones plugged in

3.5mm Adapters exist for studio grade headphones

Pros for not having the Jack:

1 less hole for water to get into the phone

No wires to worry about getting tangled

The 3.5mm hole limited how thin/light/sleek the phone could get

Batteries can be larger without the 3.5mm jack

Honestly, I'd settle for a using another port (Like another C-Type) to plug your headphones into, not only to listen to your music/call, but also charge the headphones at the same time. So a Phone would have 2 USB Type-C ports, or 2 Lightning ports (For Apple's closed ecosystem). Listen to music, while charging the headphones, and charging the phone. All at the same time. Win Win in my book.
