I honestly find it hard to believe that people are still bemoaning the ‘loss’ of the headphone jack. I stopped using it well before it was removed, probably sometime while using an iPhone 6 Plus/6S Plus (so 2015-2016). It was an absolutely obsolete interface and clearly a weak point for water resistance and structural integrity.

If you really want to use headphones you can use a pigtail on the Lightening connector or plug them into a bluetooth adapter.

EDIT: Fine, there are people who still want headphone jacks. I’m not the one who decided to remove them and I’m glad they did, but I can’t give them back to you.
