To be honest i'd prefer it to be there at all considering the current trend of removing it.

But to answer your question, jack on top, so when the phone is plugged in the wall you can stay on the other side since the headphone cable wont be bent

I prefer it being present

Bottom, for pocketing. And cable not dangling over screen.

You guys have headphone jacks ?

I prefer it existing. Tough ask I know

Same side as the charging port. All cables must come out at the same side.

Doesn't really matter as long as the jack exists in the first place.

Just having one would be great. Thank you Apple (but why did so many Androids copy the removal?).

Side, cuz fuck you that's why.

I prefer the headphone jack is on the bottom, next to the charging port. That way, I can put the ports down while my phone is in my pocket if i'm working, so nothing gets into the ports. Then, if I'm just keeping my phone in my pocket normally, with the ports up, my headphones can plug in without problems.

Bottom, because I put my phone in my pocket top down.

I'd settle for a headphone jack period. Any suggestions?

At the bottom. This way when you will it out of your pocket, you don't have to turn it around for the screen to be the right way up.

I just want the phone to rotate correctly whichever way I choose is up. I want to be able to read ebooks and charge my phone without holding it up. /End rant

Imagine if phone manufacturers asked the public like this...

You guys are getting headphone jacks?

Bottom. If I pull my phone out with the bottom facing up it's a very easy transition to hold it up and use it. At the top I've got to flip the phone around when I take it out, and that's an unforgivable sin of design. Only exaggerating a little

If the screen rotates 180 degrees then I don't care where the jack is.

When in my pocket or on a call I want the jack "up"

Not picky—it just needs to be there else I would be forced to buy Bluetooth e-waste.

Neither. I want it on the front, right in the center.

Bottom I can always put it in a pocket upside down. Just feel downs a bit more protected from the rain.

Top. If I put the phone in the cup holder it sits more naturally if the jack is at the top

Top, 100%

Then you wont rest you phone on the cable and possibly ruin it.

The best answer is where the charging port is. So if we all decided it's bottom, then it has to be down there.

All the answers trying to put it at the top don't realise they would have now double problems either when charging or using the jack.

Also, bottom jack makes it great for pockets which is where the most audio time happens.

Bottom. Phones go in pockets top down so you don't have to readjust your grip. If it's on top, now whatever's plugged in is holding up the phone. The only real benefit for a top port is the ability to have stereo bottom speakers without space constraint worries.

The phone should not have a dedicated “top” or “bottom”; the image should be able to flip 180 degrees via user config.

I don't really care as long as it's there. If I have to choose a spot, I think somewhere beside the usb-c port should be good.

Bottom of the phone.

I tend to mount my phone in my car and prefer if the jack is at the bottom.

I love when phones place the usb on the top. I have no idea why the bottom is standard, nobody uses docks anymore.

I have been happily cordless for years but preferred the bottom as putting the phone top down in my pocket makes for one quick motion to view the phone and put it back without rotating it.

Bottom. It slows accumulation of pocket lint in charging port.
