This might controversial, but I don't miss the headphone jack. Bluetooth has come far and as long as you're not listening with audiophile level headphones + lossless audio most people won't hear an actual difference between wired and wireless audio. Not having the cable dangling around is so muc better, at least for over-ear headphones.

Using high quality wired IEMs is the only reason I would maybe want a headphone jack, but the currently popular form factor for IEMs just doesn't stay in my ears (probably because my ear canal is super curved).
