Repairable 100%! Why still wanting a jack? Understood that when phones w/out Jack's were a minority and it was a compatibility issue. With Bluetooth as ubiquitous as it is and the world not built around mini Jack's anymore, why ask for a sub-par onboard DAC? I'm all for options, so not hating on the request, but this is so far down on my priority list that I have a hard time understanding the continued push for this. I'd rather have an fm tuner, rf generator, and ir blaster than mini jack.
To use already owned headphones? To not be forced to buy more expensive ones?
Cheap DAC converters are literally less than $3. Are you also upset about your new dvd player not being able to play your VHS collection?
