Cool, thanks for the tip.
It would be nice to have a back cover or a protective case to protect it and keep it in place.
Without protection, Iâm afraid the USB port wonât last very long (with me, at least).
P.S. For 229,5âŹ, it is surely golden plated and very HI-FI!

229.00 NOK (Norske kroner) = 20,85 âŹ
Not expensive.

Sorry I was (trying to be) kidding 
But more seriously, I still donât get something:
This USB-C port is outputing analog and digital signal at the same time? Or auto-switching, depending of what is plugged?
I can use the 3.5mm jack to listen audio and charge simultaneously. Tested on Jolla Phone (2026) with protective case.

There is a dedicated thread for this topic, already: USB-C to 3.5mm jack adapters known to work with Sailfish OS
Any news on the status of a possible TOH?

Analog output must be provided by phone, and jolla does not support it even there is some kind of DAC inside for earspeaker/loudspeaker the quality may not be fine for headphones, so from my point of view using hifi DAC usb-c->Jack is finnaly almost same, you just plug it on headphones/aux-in cable only once for the first time and then connecting only usb-c to the phone, so it is same operation, instead plugging Jack, you plugging usbc âŚ
Iâm not 100% sure on the âJolla does not support itâ part. From another thread:
And:
A USB-to-3.5mm adapter with a built-in DAC for just 2-3$? Really? For 12âŹ, yes, but just 2-3$?
I might be wrong though. 
I see several on Amazon for $/⏠6-7. And also 2 for $/⏠8. And those are free shipping with Prime, so $/⏠2-3 under other circumstances sounds very likely. This makes analog mode of the USB-C quite obsolete.
Please forgive me for replying to this message instead of the previous one. I hope I didnât miss any message but sadly no USB-C to 3.5mm jack adapter can solve this problem. Because itâs technically inferior. Jack is kind of perfect solution. Simple, quite robust, can be turned 360 degrees, can be of course waterproof and itâs a standard. All audio equipment has it so itâs super easy to connect anything. Doesnât require anything, just works.
USB-C connection itself is very fragile, I can put dollars against peanuts that usb-c will die much earlier if youâd use such adapter and try to keep phone inside your trousers. With jack thatâs not a problem.
So suggestion to use such adapter should be considered more like a joke as the only point why phones doesnât have it are money! It was Apple who did it first at the same time they released their bt headphones! Exactly same happened with microsd card so users are forced to pay for cloud.
Now also irda is gone - but not from Chinese phones! Led notification is also gone now because of? Yes you got it - money!
Itâs always like this. And no, saying âthereâs no space in phoneâ is a pure lie. Itâs only matter of design. Nowadays phones are way bigger and have less features than the older ones which were even equipped with heart sensors not to mention proper xenon flash instead of weak led.

When I worked support for Apple many years back, one of the main reasons for warranty returns and service was headphone ports that had worn out or had the jack broken off and stuck in there, or they had dust and fluff in the headphone port etc.
I think that, rather than letting headphone ports eat a little into their enormous mark-ups, they decided to flog bluetooth headphones to make even more money and to brainwash people into thinking that it was somehow better to have to charge your headphones before you use them.

Yes i also have 3⏠USB-C to Jack, but support only 16bit up to 48k what technically should be fine as the phone pulse audio is set to same, but it is only first part on conversion digital infirmation to analog signal. I can hear difference between this cheap and more expensive dacs.

Yes i agree with you. i was upset too when discovered that Jolla will not have Jack
but finally after few weeks of using DAC in the car it is same to me i just plug some connector and no need to rotate with connector as the 1.5m cable is flexible enought to allow me rotate with phone
Or when listening from headphones i usualy do nothing else so again not any isue with dac
i agree that pushing phone of this size into slim pocked would be bad for attached usb dac and for inside connector too but would not be perfect even for regular jack.

By the way, @lolek: What nonsense! You, too can have a HiLight (which is clearly superior to any other kind of status LED - especially since itâs at the back of the device) in a new Google Pixel 11 for only a thousand dollars upwards!
So then it goes against the âput it screen down for silent modeâ? They thought about anything!

so itâs another con of the jolla phone - itâs just to big!
The phone is not too big. Itâs maybe too big for YOU, but for me it fits perfectly. Iâd even like it to be a little bit bigger, like the C2.
Why do so many people decide for others, whether something is good or bad, fits or doesnât fit?
Please state it as YOUR OWN opinion, which applies for YOU.
Sorry, but I really donât like generalization at all, while expressing an opinion in a differentiated way would be so easy.

yes itâs to big even for you except youâre an alien with enormous hand, are you?
Sorry but in the past there was an article explaining why itâs impossible to properly hold and use a phone thatâs bigger than 5â.
So when you say âitâs not big for youâ it just means âyouâre ok with it being to big and you got used to thatâ. And thatâs fine, but please donât try to twist it back saying âitâs not to bigâ when itâs of a frying pane size.
