iceleel - "It's 450 € starting price"

colossusrageblack - "I'm still on a OnePlus 8T+ 5G, still blazing fast. The only annoyance is the near annual OS update that changes how everything looks."

3RW33 - "I have the same phone and you see I like that annual update, makes it feel like I have a new phone without having to buy one"

JudoTurnip - "Had a Oneplus phone for a few years, the hardware was fine. The real problem was the Software. Every few months they would completely change the UI leading to frustration and sometimes complete reloading of all apps and preferences. I was so annoyed I switched to a new phone despite the hardware being fine."

butterTastesYummy - "No headphone jack – – – no sale."

Mr_Piddles - "I’ll be honest, I expected to dislike the lack of a headphone Jack way more than I actually have. Bluetooth earbuds and headphones are more convenient."

Skelly1660 - "Both options would be great"

_RADIANTSUN_ - "You can plug in a USBC dongle. I know this enrages and confuses the typical headphone jack enthusiast but you literally do have both OPTIONS available to you. One of them is just not hardwired into every phone anymore."

WagwanMoist - "A phone with a headphone jack also has Bluetooth. Options are great."

butterTastesYummy - "Bluetooth earbuds and headphones are great for some situations."

sualp12 - "Haven't been able to use wired headphones for more than a year, the cable wears out way too fast. 20 years is certainly a number."

WagwanMoist - "Quality helps. My AKG Y50 wired headphones lasted about 7 years or so. I had accidentally yanked the cord out a number of times. Eventually it was one too many I guess but it was still a great value. Think they cost me somewhere between €40-50."

butterTastesYummy - "I bought my current Sony headphones (wired) in 2000. Never had to charge them, pair them, or replace a battery. Your mileage may vary."

Mr_Piddles - "I’m not going to argue with you, but I disagree with like 70% of your arguments."

butterTastesYummy - "To each his own. I just feel exploited when companies remove something I like and use daily and call it an upgrade. 🙄"

rtaylor1981 - "I don't have a massive problem with no headphone jack, I mean that's a pretty outdated port these days. But I would love to see a phone with 2 usb-c ports. No one would buy a laptop with a single usb port, so why don't we demand more of our phones?"

Odinexeterna - "Asus ROG 7 series has 2 USBC ports and Headphone jack...."

danielv123 - "Agreed. That, and a thicker phone with a larger faster charging battery. Got a Xiaomi 11t now and I love the fast charging when traveling. Twice as large battery would be nice, I find it uncomfortably thin and slippery without a case anyways."
