I see a lot of people complaining that the Fairphone 6 doesn’t have an Aux jack.
Just use an adapter cable.
A 3.5mm Aux jack takes up a significant amount of space just to connect a few wires that could be connected through USB-C anyway, that space could be used for a bigger battery.
Even if there was a good enough reason to keep Aux it should be 2.5mm Aux and not the usual 3.5 as it does exactly the same thing but uses less space
Exactly. The real e-waste is the millions of wireless headphones going into landfills each year when the non-replaceable batteries die.
Wires fail too. I’ve gone through way way more wired headphones than wireless.
Probably a majority of waste in this context is from people swapping devices or airlines giving shitty corded headphones on every flight.
