    3.5mm plugs are literally 1950s technology, the manufacturing cost is virtually zero, instead now they’re including up to four cameras on some phones which are way more expensive and complex to install, take up more space and might be used less often than a headphone jack, so I don’t buy it. This is capitalists we’re talking about. The idea is that you’ll buy an overpriced adapter or more expensive wireless headphones instead. And you’ll replace those headphones more often because the BT Audio codecs will keep getting better (to achieve the same lossless sound quality as a wired pair) and the battery will die out.
