I really wish it had a 3.5mm audio jack. I don't see what companies stand to earn, other than money, when they remove the headphone jack.
I can see why Apple and Samsung removed it because the they can market their own wireless headphones.
Removing the jack only removes capability, it is not like older phones didn't have the capability to connect to Bluetooth headphones
They don't even send a charger anymore...
How is that bad? Go to your drawer and use one of the dozens you'll have accumulated over the years
You don't accumulate that many if you don't buy phones every year or two, and then as mentioned, over more time your charger needs could've changed.
The charger shouldn't be only thing that's built to last.
But unfortunately its very common for people to change phones often
