Don’t get me wrong. Apple removing audio jack was the biggest facepalm in smartphone history. And you can thank it for not being able to make an upgrade without sacrificing audio jack (and SD card too :/). But USB-C is getting standardized everywhere now (laptops, smartphones, etc.). What makes USB-C earphones not worth the switch?

    In my particular case, that setup sucks for my car. The adapter advertises having a microphone but my car’s aux port doesn’t have one.

    I would use Bluetooth but the car’s Bluetooth is the worst damned thing I’ve ever had the displeasure of using. It sucks even by Bluetooth standards. The car even forbids pairing/unpairing while the car is in drive, which is great for nanny-stating the morons who try to do that while operating the car but what about when I’m the passenger?! The car’s mostly used for family road trips and that kind of inflexibility makes it a nonstarter.
