With the Moto G35, Motorola is bringing a smartphone to the market with a big screen, decent resolution and a modern case. It can be yours for quite a bit less than $200 and also possesses entertainment qualities, thanks to DRM certification and good stereo speakers.
True, even Samsung budgets still have the 3.5 mm jack. I guess Motorola really wishes folks to purchase their wireless options.
I just stopped fighting it and bought a cheap usb c adapter. The only time I want to use earphones is when I’m out anyway.
