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

    This is something only the nerds complain about. The general public prefer Bluetooth buds. If there was significant demand for phones with AUX, someone would build them.

      The general public is full of morons. Demand has nothing to do with it, most people just follow like sheep and have no idea what is going on around them.

      These companies don’t give a shit what the public demands. The public just gobbles up the newest model regardless of what features it offers.
