I don't give a shit about what fairphone does anymore. They removed the headphone jack to follow trends and sell their own pos wireless earbuds.
Just another company attempting to leverage its green messages to get more sales.
to be honest, I agree with you somewhat. but it's the best we got for now till a competitor comes along.
that being said though headphone jacks are SO annoying because they make noise and fall out so easily, I wish we could get a 2nd USBC instead.
also I'm gonna keep using my Pixel 8 till security updates run out then see how fairphone is doing. It was a tough decision to get the pixel but the fairphone 5 wasn't sold where I live back then :(
Which is a damn shame.
have you seen miad 01? it's more of a dac with a phone but they got 4.4mm, i think it's a cool idea
edit: idk what kinda jacks you had, maybe i'm not using it that much but i've never had one fall off, even on a phone that i reassembled before. what kind of failure point was it?
that looks dope as hell, but I'm not really a hi-fi user other than my desktop setup which is where my pain with aux comes from
I have a "beyrdynamics dt 350 limited edition" (iirc) with a custom cord because I sit like a shrimp and the long studio port would dig into my shoulder
I hate long cords so I measured it to be 3.5 feet but in reality it often tugs on the port and comes out so easily. it's really annoying but I'm not paying another $50 to get a new cord or risking it with my nonexistent sauder skills
I accidentally solved that by having a pc case with really tight 3.5 ports, using a splitter (edit: it's a short, flexible type) that is quite loose and finally, headphones with an extremely solid port on the left cup (though I'd prefer right). If I yank it, the weakest link pops out, which is the output side of that splitter. In hindsight, for the price i paid this case is insanely good
