The new fairphone 5 came out, it looks cool but the price is really, really high…

If it’s a phone that can really last 10 years it could be good, but is that true? Is it worth it? I could get the one with /e/os from Murena because i want a degoogled phone with a bootloader locked, but is it usable on a daily basis?

    Companies removed it to sell overpriced wireless headphones.

    Of course, I’m not denying this. That still doesn’t negate my point about audio jacks being redundant ports.

    It’s way better to use regular headphones than the wireless pieces of crap with batteries and an amplifier and a bluetooth receiver in them.

    Yes, and those regular headphones CAN be plugged into phones without headphone jack via the USB-C port

      Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I think phones without a headphone jack should have a second USB C port instead.
