No. I listen to music via headphones while falling asleep, and require my phone to charge at the same time. The dongles available are complete garbage: they only work with the connectors in certain orientations and sometimes just don't work outright. Designers that remove useful features without a consistently working replacement are selfish assholes and should be fired.
I've been using a dongle in my car(an older model with no bluetooth), and it is quickly wearing out my phones usb port. Keeps falling out. The headphone jack was a lot more resilient.
Seems like your phone's manufacturer cheaped out on the port. I have an iPad Pro whose usb-c port still feels rock solid after 2.5 years.
Problem patched, more or less: you can easily forget or loose the dongle, and you’ve lost the ability to charge your phone at the same time. It still feels like a step back in functionality.
I've tried that, but it's not quite as convenient as I'd like. It sticks out in ways that make the phone harder to carry around. It doesn't fit in some of the bags I use to carry it, for example.
That's a small inconvenience, of course, but we're talking about a device that's with me all the time, and small annoyances add up.
Don't you have to, ya know, store your headphones somewhere? Keep the dongle on your headphone cord
