I used to use it a lot. I still have some nice headphones that I like using, but they have become 2nd choice. I have bone conducting headphones that I use daily.

I prefer them, because I can still communicate, ride the bike, and never have to pause the music. But if I have to do anything loud, the wired buds are coming out to plug the ear holes.

I would but I don’t really have any headphones, but I have some I definitely would, it’s a cheaper version of airpods

I use my daily and purchased my phone primarily based on the fact it had a 3.5 jack. I am a long time DJ so my headphones are very comfortable and natural for me.

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

daily when I drive to connect to AUX in car. Not connecting via bluetooth, read up on vehicle data collection.

there are usb-c to aux adaptors available for cheap

Your car is collecting so much more info about than just your contacts from bluetooth pairing and music taste.

Those would be the least of my concerns.

Not my 99 Honda. I’ll never let her die!!!

I almost exclusively use wired headphones. Only time I use the Bluetooth is when going the gym.

I don't feel like the cable is inconvenient at all. But there are advantages in the two things I care. Better audio quality and no battery to worry about. So I prefer the wired one and use my headphone jack almost daily.

I bought a $100 2023 phone and I use the headphone jack

My current phone doesn’t have a headphone jack, but if it did I would every day. Still use wired every day on laptop and pc.

I do.

I don’t use it every day because I’m at my PC a lot on a normal day, and I use wired headphones plugged in to that instead. I do use it often when traveling, both for IEM-style earbuds that block most external noise, and to plug into rental cars, family members’ cars, etc… with an aux cable. Yes, Bluetooth is an option on most newer cars, but it’s slower to set up than a cable, and not all the cars I end up driving are newer.

Agree with this, a headphone jack is occasionally very useful, especially when traveling. I had a Google Pixel without a headphone jack and I was surprised how much I missed it, I got an adapter just to restore that functionality.

theKalash ,

Yup, I use it regularly.

sarmale ,

Every time i use headphones

Current phone doesn’t have one, but I loved the LG V30. It had a high end DSP.

goldenlocks ,

I use it in my car

I’m djing and I care about good audio, but the comfort of wireless headphones is just too big of an advantage for me when I’m not specifically planning the next set. The limiting factor regarding freedom of movement with wired headphones always bummed me out. I was never regretting the switch.

At home and for gaming I use the arctis 7 (wifi headset) and a wireless mouse, never had latency issues with fps shooters or anything. And I love the comfort of being able to just walk to kitchen or the bathroom without loosing audio, e.g. when I chat with my friends. On my phone I could use an aux adapter and I thought about buying it, but didn’t ever really feel the need to do so. On my laptop however I wouldn’t wanna miss aux, cause I don’t always have an external soundcard with me :)
