On a recent post, there were a lot of comments, which said that they were missing the headphones on newer mobile devices.

How many actually use the headphone jack?

I ask, because I have one on my phone, since I really wanted one, but I rarely use it. Like Tops 1/Month.

    I use mine everyday. I listen to music, podcasts, and sometimes watch videos at work, basically the entire time I’m working. I usually have my phone connected and charging at the same time through the charge port. Wireless charging doesn’t work because of my Pop Socket.

    They also break or I lose them in occasion and it takes a quick trip to any gas station, grocery store, or basically any nearby store during my lunch break, and I’m able to pick up replacements for $10-$20.

    Fair to say, I refuse to buy my next phone without headphone jacks. I do use wireless headphones for when I’m working out, but otherwise, at work or on walks, I use wired ones connected to my headphone jack.
