    I’m trying to point out that your “pro” of better fidelity doesn’t mean anything in a space where people aren’t using a lossless format

    Some people do, though.

    People are calling it a money grab move to not include a headphone jack, and I just don’t think that’s fair.

    It’s absolutely fair because there’s no other legitimate explanation for removing it while simultaneously introducing your brand new wireless headphones. Just like there was no other legitimate explanation when Apple or Google or Samsung did it.

    Fairphone’s entire brand is built around “sustainability” and they just shit all over it, so people are rightfully disappointed.

    Wired headphones will pretty much last for an eternity, and while you can argue the merits of Bluetooth headphones, sustainability is absolutely not one of them.
