Rip my LGV10. May you bootloop in peace

I've been voting with my wallet on this one for years- no headphone jack, no purchase

It's becoming super difficult now to be honest. I think I'm about to bite the bullet this weekend and just get a usb-c to 3.5mm adapter although it pains me deeply.

What phone do you use??? I'm looking at the S23 at the moment but I'm still on an S8 lol

Xiaomi Redmi10. Cheap and has a 3.5mm.

I'm on a Sony Xperia 10 IV now. Amazing battery life, decent for one-handed use, has a headphone jack, SD slot, and meh camera. Mostly solid overall- agree the situation's getting worse and worse every year

I remember switching to Android because you could replace the battery and expand storage, and those were huge selling points. But now my phone has none of those things. Although I guess a lot of stuff is in the cloud.

No question, removing swappable batteries was pretty brazenly consumer-hostile.

One of the main reasons I'm 100% on board with stuff like the Pinephone, at least in theory (just wish Linux phones were actually ready to be used as phones.. maybe in another couple of years).

I know it had its issues but I was pretty sad that the LG G5 sort of compromise where you got the removable battery while still not "looking cheap" never really went anyway.
