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

    Anyone who claims they can hear the difference between an aux jack and USB-C is lying.

      I can hear the difference. See, my headphones were bought in the 80s. So they have a 3.5mm jack. If I tried plugging it into a usb-c jack, it would sound AWFUL!

      If the dac on the USB c adapter is cheap you can absolutely tell the difference. However, even apples USB c dac is decent, so that’s not really too much of the main problem.
