I was a batch 2 owner of the FairPhone 1, the FairPhone 2, the FairPhone 3+ . . . and just a month ago upgraded to the new FairPhone 6. And a guy who absolutely loathes Bluetooth earbuds. Yet I don’t miss the 3.5mm jack for a simple reason . . . wired USB-C earbuds are a thing. I picked up a cheap set from JBL and never thought about the 3.5mm jack again.
Yes, I agree . . . they could have/should have stuck with it. But honestly . . it’s no huge loss.
Flying international from Australia I really miss headphone ports. The USB port is needed to keep the phone charged, since even the biggest batteries only give you about 4 hours of YouTube. My Bluetooth headphones last about 16hrs, so that’s almost enough. I usually carry alternative Bluetooth earbuds that last several hours to cover such gaps
