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 don’t. It’s nice not to have to have a wire wrapped around me, being able to walk freely around without worrying about it possibly getting snagged or needing to have my phone on me just to have headphones on. The shortcomings of Bluetooth have all been largely solved for every use case other than music production. Even for gaming I use a pair of headphones with a proprietary dongle that has no perceptible latency, and they last over a month.
