I'll be that guy. No headphone jack, no sale. As others have said, I'd love GrapheneOS as well, but I know why that isn't in the cards.
Yeah, no jack no thanks ...
Not a deal breaker for others but it is for me. Their rationale saying that the USB-C is more resilient than the jack is weird because I've never had the jack fail and even if it does isn't that why you're selling a repairable phone to me ...?
Anyways, I see they're selling earbuds so I'm going to assume that that's their main motivator.
Interesting, when I was still using wired headphones I've never had a jack survive the lifetime of the phone, and only on my Nexus 5 was I able to replace it
