I don’t get the fanboy culture around phone manufacturers. None of them have done anything innovative in a decade. They’re just adding more cameras and trying to make them thinner even though I’m pretty sure most people don’t care about either.
Just got my first phone without a headphone jack, and it’s thicker than my previous phone that had one. But honestly it’s mildly annoying at most. A dongle works, I guess, but it’s certainly weird and seems like an unnecessary omission.
I moved on to Airpods shortly after they came out and honestly I have had 0 desire to use wired headphones with a phone. The Airpods pro sound great for earbuds.
If I want a real super high quality audio experience I’d use a dedicated DAC and AMP because the ones in phones have never been amazing. Plus if I’m out and about there’s probably too much background noise to even appreciate good headphones.

Phones have stopped getting thinner like 10 years ago
Not in any practical sense of the word but that didn’t stop them from removing headphone jacks in order to shave an additional 1/16 of an inch off.
In order to sell more of their “premium” wireless earbuds.
Um, you know you can use any bluetooth earbuds right?
“Think differently”
Which is why they designed their wireless ear pods as if they cut off the cord for the wired variant.

That’s good. Spend most of my time indoors in noise free environments and in ears/earphones do not work for me for medical reasons.
They make over the ear bluetooth headphones too.
Oh I am aware and own a good pair. Latency is still an issue, and my best sounding cans are wired.
I’d prefer they make it fatter if the battery would last more than a day as consequence.
They literally have done that. For example iPhone 15 Pro Max is 12.5mm thick. The iPhone 6 (thinnest iPhone ever made) was 7mm.
There are several iPhones with different batteries but the largest one is 17Wh. The iPhone 6 had a 7Wh battery.
That’s what they do. Compare an iPhone 6 to the current ones, you’ll see they’ve gotten fat
