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.

Budget phones have them because wired earbuds or headphones are cheap: wired buds under $10. Last flight I was on gave them away for free. Harder to lose. If you’re paying £1,000+ for a phone, the you’re probably not worried about the cost of accessories. Might even put the style of no dangly wires over the functionality.

Too entitled to understand dividing markets by cost. Aesthetics trump functionality when your phone becomes a fashion accessory.
Why would you even waste studio headphones on a device with a $0.25 DAC and no space for signal isolation? Or is that just to signal fellow audiophiles.
