At least for the next few years, I am pretty firm on needing a jack on my device.

I am currently using an LG v60, and while nice, it’s starting to show its age.

Any suggestions on where to go next?

I was looking at the ROG phone, and while it does seem very nice, I feel like it is a bit much as I don’t game on my device at all.

Are there any good phones I should be looking at?

Thanks!

    It may be on the older side, but I’ve been using my Pixel 4A for three years or so, no complaints. I also use the headphone whenever possible. Also using GrapheneOS.

    You may want to check out the Pixel 5A (also has a headphone jack if I’m not mistaken) for a bit of a newer phone, but the one I got used seems to have a band issue in which it would forcefully shut down after some time with my SIM card.

      my pixel 4a is still kicking it

      I do need to back it up and factory reboot tho, I think that might help some of the typing issues that have come up recently.

      The pixel 5a has some reliability issues it’s predassessors did not. It is an extremely fragile device.

        I think the fragility is either overstated or there were some lemons in the batch. I’ve had mine since day one, don’t treat it with kid gloves and have never had an issue.

          I had one break, then another, then another. Granted I’m rougher with my phone than most, but that sort of pattern hasn’t popped up with other phones.

              Yes. And I don’t just mean the glass. I had a screen fail without any impact/physical damage.

                Nuts! Sorry about that. I’d definitely avoid the phone if I had those issues.
