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

    Now I’m picturing a docking station!

    Even when I had a phone with audio output, I almost never connected more than one wire. The only likely use case is charging and listening at the same time, but there’s already a lot going wrong if that has to happen…

      Idk I often forget to charge my phone in the evening, so plugging it in 1x and still having an UsB-C connection for headphones or a controller would be cool. Also imagine running linux on your phone and having an external monitor.
