What phone still has a 3.5mm headphone jack? Sincere question, I'd like to buy one.

Samsung Galaxy A Series (A15 / A15 5G, A14 / A14 5G, A25) all have headphone jacks. These are their "lower-end" models, though. The higher-end ones don't. And of course, iPhones haven't for a long time, too. Alternatively, for other phones with just a USB-C port, you could get a USB-C to headphone jack adapter.

edit to add: if Slate is successful, I wouldn't be surprised if a decently sized ecosystem pops up around easily installed custom sound systems and the tablets (possibly with headphone jacks!) to control them.

Thank you! I'm not a huge Samsung fan, their Android flavor doesn't appeal to me much, but I'm glad that someone is still making phones with headphone jacks. USB-C adapters are mostly fine, but I like being able to charge and listen to music at the same time without a clunky adapter, it's yet another thing I'll lose.

The 2025 Moto G Stylus has one!

Good find, I currently have an aging Pixel 6a (with, regrettably, no headphone jack) but I like Motorola's hardware and their fairly vanilla Android. I may consider a Motorola device, if they provide updates for at least 5 years.
