The answer to this problem is better wireless headphones

Because what lithium ion battery last forever? They're well degraded after a few years.

So stop using electronics? We’re talking about a phone with its own batteries. I understand your point but Fairphone can’t solve every sustainability and e-waste problem with a single device. Not buying this phone, assuming you buy a different, less sustainable phone, is a net negative.

They could create less e-waste by including a headphone jack and not removing it cause they wanna sell their own wireless headphones. Its a simple money move. And I don't wanna support a company like that even if in theory their message is just.

It’s also in keeping with the entire industry. “I don’t want to use a USB-C dongle” isn’t a principled stance

I've made plenty of other good points for why the headphone jack should be still included.

You’ve certainly made plenty of points about it
