Very often. My wired headset connects to sounds better for calls than my wireless earbuds.

Daily. Bought my sennheiser wired noise cancelling headphones in 2017 and they look quite rough now but still sound great and nc is still on par or better than most new headphobes. My brother and sister bought the bluetooth counterpart and both have replaced them years ago since they broke.

Yesterday played music via aux cable and I also use my phone as a mic while gaming and need the jack for that aswell.

I won’t buy a phone that doesn’t have it. I hate to charge my wireless earbuds, also they break after a few years for no reason because the battery got old. So I have a physical aux headset, will last me 10 years easy and never needs charging.

BUT the other day someone suggested to just get an usb-c to aux adapter and I’ll probably do that in future if the aux connector isn’t present on the next phone.

I’ve had the exact opposite experience. I have a literal pile of dead wired headsets (most were mid quality but two of them were >100$) but not a single one of the 4 wireless headsets ive had since then have died (the first one i bought have admittedly had its battery degraded to where it can only live for an hour or two, but its nearing on 10 years old now).

Not saying you can’t have the opposite experience, but from my point of view last noticably longer at a similar priceclass (and i run them pretty hard both physically and time wise, easily 6-10h/day, with workouts most day). I’ve been running my jabra elite 65t for over 5 years now as my only headset which is the longest i’ve ever had a single headset. Though admittedly i lost my case 1.5 years ago while biking but i managed to find a secondhand case.

All the time, every day

I do, its so much better than this bluetooth nonsense for simple everyday use. No charging, no pairing and FM Radio. Checkmate!

I use mine almost on a daily basis, with my headphones and when I connect my phone to my stereo system.

I do have Chromecast Audio hooked up and I own good wireless Hi-Fi earbuds, but I prefer to use cables. They just work better, no interference or any other hassle.

I’m one of those who miss the headphone jack on mine. Half the time I can’t get my wireless earbuds to work right (and I didn’t completely cheap out on them), and I had to buy an expensive Bluetooth radio thing to connect it to my car radio because my car is too old to have that built in. An aux cord through the jack on my old phone worked just fine, even better, than that stupid thing.

I used to, but recent budget wireless (Earfun, Soundcore, et al.) are getting good enough to compete with wired for me. Having things like multipoint pairing which is obviously not possible with wired is hard to go back from once you get used to it.

I use the soundcore life q10 and love it. I have had it for ~5 years now and have never once killed them. I think thevlowest i ever got them to was 20%. And i used them on a 44 hour greyhound trip and couldnt kill them. They just go and go and go some more

I do, I like that I don’t have to worry about charging

scytale ,

When I used to have a phone with a headphone jack and my car only had a radio/cd player, I always used it to get my phone’s audio into the car for navigation and music.

I do on a regular basis using the mobile from work. I use wired headset for 90% of the cals I make on this phone.

About once every other week on my phone, multiple times a week on my ipad (pro 10.5). It's more that I have a Bluetooth dac for some 30ohm headphones I regularly use, as my phone had more difficulty driving it at usable volume without going all the way up and getting the "you're hurting your ears!" warning.

shortwavesurfer ,

I’ve used a headphone jack on my phone probably three times in the past two years. It is extremely uncommon for me to use it, and I would actually just prefer it not be there.

DrPop ,

Whenever I’m in the car I use it to plug my phone into the Aux port. I also like to play rhythm games on my phone and Bluetooth has too much of a delay.
