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 loved the headphone jack on the S10, but other issues I had with the charging port made me switch to an S23 at the beginning of this year. I generally do not like wireless headphones due to the possibility of losing them, but using wired headphones and requiring an adapter to use them (because the S23 has no headphone jack) is a pain.

Overall, due to the specific nature of my phone, I'd use wireless headphones to regain the ability to answer and respond to phone calls while walking and listening to music. If I could get a Galaxy S class of phone with a headphone jack again, regardless of the thickness, I'd 100% be all over it.
