Alternatively, if your current phone doesn't have a headphone jack, do you wish it did?

Yes. I use my headphone jack at least 3 times a week for 4 hours at a time went I'm on dialysis.

Plus for home listening I have a nice pair of over ear headphones which I run off a mobile DAC/AMP which connects to the phone via 3.5mm aux cable.

I won't buy a phone if it doesn't have a headphone jack. Hence my previous phone was an LG30 and my current is a Sony Xperia 10iii.

I once tried using Bluetooth in ear headphones at dialysis and the damn thing fell out of my ear and onto the floor. Had to leave it there for hours until I was unhooked from the machine. Thank goodness the cleaner never came to sweep otherwise it would be lost forever.

With wired this is not a problem, neither is forgetting to charge them since they don't need charging.
