    For the amount of space a earphone jack takes it really doesn’t make sense for them to include it, when you can just use a cheap adaptor cable

      “For the amount of space it takes to include a second speaker or second camera it doesn’t really make sense when you can just plug in an external one”

      You sound like an idiot.

      I can buy a phone from HMD that’s more repairable, more modular, and has sustainable features.

      Fairphone has been a busted flush since they ditched the headphone jack. It’s just the most obvious sign amongst many they started making landfill phones.

        Resorting to insults really?

        3.5mm Aux takes up a shit load of space to connect 4 analog wires. If a phone has Aux it should at the very least be 2.5mm.

        It makes no sense to me why you can’t just use an adapter.

        More battery > Redundant analog cable most people don’t use anyway.

        I might be a idiot as you say, but the people at Fairphone don’t seem to be because they ditched AUX as they should have
