I finally had to retire my dying LG V30 that I wanted to keep forever because it had a headphone jack.
I like the power and build quality of flagship phones but no flagships have a headphone jack anymore so fuck em. I’m not gonna spend upwards of $1000 for a phone that doesn’t have the features I want.
I ended up buying a cheap Motorola that has a headphone jack, wireless charging, and an SD card slot. I do miss the AOD that is only available on OLED displays though. It’s a bit chonkier than I’d like but overall for 300 bucks I’m pretty happy.
How long have you had it? I was looking at that phone, but the one star reviews (there were many), scared me off.
More than anything I just want a newer/supported version of what I am still using, the Pixel 4a. It’s about as big as I want a phone to get, has been rock solid for over four years, and it supports GrapheneOS (or did before they cut support).
Mine was delivered mid Feb so not even a month at this point. The phone only became available in February as far as I can tell so there aren’t many in people’s hands yet so I’m probably a bit of a guinea pig.

Well, I will definitely keep an eye on it if my 4a finally kicks the bucket.
