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

    This is totally reasonable.

    If the issue is money, we can just say “support aux bc a large population can’t afford to swap,” a lot of this thread seems to be poverty masquerading as purism. It’s the purism I can’t understand.
