I don't require it as I have used a phone without one. However when I have one there's always times where I'm thankful it's there.
I haven’t used wired since around 2013, and would have switched to jack-less if available at that time. I don’t understand the “anti-consumer” theories around their removal. Most people who end up buying phones without jacks end up buying BT headphones from a manufacturer other than the phone one. Unless you think there’s a conspiracy where Sony and Bose are giving kickbacks to Samsung and Apple…
Nope.. Haven't used one for years.. I use Android Auto in my car, and Aftershokz headphones (which are bone induction).
For me, its significantly more important for my phone to be waterproof, because I do lots of hiking and alpine.
