This reminds me of the Game Boy Advance SP and how it removed the 3.5mm jack for seemingly no reason other than to have me buy an adapter.<p>I won&#x27;t buy a phone without a 3.5mm jack. It just works. I don&#x27;t need digital audio. My (medium-price-range) headphones sound utterly glorious, there is no utility here.<p>To be honest, I&#x27;m not sure whether I&#x27;ll ever upgrade my 2013 Moto G. It&#x27;ll probably break eventually.<p>When did I become a luddite? It&#x27;s like, at some point, things stopped getting substantially better, and just became sidegrades with annoying tweaks for the sake of it.<p>I want my toaster to take... bread. Not tomatoes. Bread is what I eat for breakfast, not toasted tomatoes. :P
