I feel yah, but I was completely fed up looking for the golden pony boy with a 3.5mm jack. I'm team dongle now :-(.

I am reluctantly Team dongle now aswell.

I'd have liked to get something like a Sony that would fit a lot of my needs hardware wise (headphone jack, SD card reader, side mounted fingerprint scanner, and so on). But the shit software update policy and higher price made me just get a pixel 6a and make some compromises.

The only ones I've seen have 180° degree USB-C ports, I haven't really been thorough searching tbf..

I feel like they could pose damage to the charging port, if I were to use them with the phone on my pocket.

Probably just overthinking it but still 😂

Just get the apple usb-c to 3.5mm dongle, it's cheap and relatively powerful. They are 10 euro rond here and I have like 3 laying around (dongles suck and get lost ) or permanently coupled with the cable I use it with. 180 degree ports are probably not great in pocket, maybe if it rests on the port? port downwards?

Yeah, they're cheap enough Thanks for the suggestion!
