minus-squarerumba@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·2 days agoI’ve had them both be problematic. Nothing deoxit can’t fix. Headphone jacks have a hell of a lot of leverage on that port. An IP68 headphone jack is honestly pretty bulky. I’d rather have one. I also also like us to go back to phones that are 1cm+ thick and just fill it out with battery.
