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 much prefer wired headphones, for lots of reasons. My last phone had a 3.5mm jack and I used it daily. My current phone doesn’t have one, so I use a USB-C/3.5mm jack converter dongle daily instead. I’ll probably buy USB-C headphones next time I’m in the market for them, I guess.

      I have had to buy replacement USB-C/3.5mm jacks. I have never seen USC-C headphones but it has to be cheaper than these adapters.
