Nobody mentioned the bluetooth call quality. There are mainly 2 profiles user, ad2p (music only) and hfp/hsp (calls). The call quality is horrible on hfp/hsp if you want to use your phone for internet calls or recordings. They should have improved the bluetooth protocols and do a switch after. But as long as the people will buy... nobody gives a s#$%^

    well the day I will buy one without it is the day I see phone that's too awesome to care of if no good phones remain that have it, I use my headphones a lot, specially when the batteries on my Bluetooth ones run out, also they're bulky to sleep with etc,

      I'm Bluetooth earphones 90% of the time for the last 5 years, however, I still need the 3.5mm jack on occasions where I drained my BT earphones.

      I can still charge and listen to music while doing something with my smartphone. It's silly to remove it as an alternative for me.

          When looking for a phone I always check does it have the jack. My headphones are wired, I don't want to buy new ones or charge yet another device with wireless, unless they last for a week and Bluetooth doesn't drain my phone too much. I despise them pushing these things on us using stupid explanations. Manufacturers don't ask us for opinion, that upsets me.

                Not enough options for this vote. There should be a third option for "I only buy phones that add features and not take them away"

                  Same as with vinyl, hope for the better quality using new tech. Wireless is the future, not better however in quality right now. At least bring full Hz spectrum. From 3Hz up.

                    Akinaro, 10 Dec 2017so just because 1-3% of people that carry 24/7 bag of cable... moreMan like 4-5 years ago a 16 year old girl invented a charger which could charge any phone from 0-100% in less than 60 seconds.
                    After 5 years i dont see that kind of charger in shops for sale.
                    Similar option is a photocell phone.
                    Which also has been created for army several years ago.
                    Any kind of light will charge the battery because the back side and bottom front and back is made from high quality solar panels.
                    Typical they make a great tech for army but when it will come to public army have something beyond believe.

                                AnonD-558092, 10 Dec 2017Convenience cannot beat quality. 3.5mm all the way.3,5 is all that block the way to freedom.
                                Wireless is freedom.

                                  The poll is build for people without jack, I have the hack on my phone so I can't vote both of the options

                                    Anyway dont use headset.
                                    Get Razer with THX certified speaker and run it loud on public.
                                    I bet you will love it.

                                      They could have own solution.

                                        headphone jack FTW!
