Agreed.
I am among the almost 75% of non-iOS users in the world, and I will never own any apple products. I am totally happy with my Android phone with a 3.5 mm jack and expandable storage and I will never get rid of it. I have top of the line bluetooth headphones but will always revert to wired cans when I want to listen to real music. Bluetooth cannot compete with even a mid-level can for sound quality, and sound quality is THE most important thing to me. I didn't buy multi $k headphones to listen to bluetooth. Apple with their proprietary, non-open source products and without a 3.5 mm plug will never grace my desk or pocket.
Without delving in to the BT vs. Wired quality and brand fanboy discussion points, I doubt that any differences would be relevant given the ambient noise in most areas outside the home.
Single purpose jacks are the 8 track tape decks/floppy disks of this era. What are you going to do when the inevitable happens and the Android phone manufacturers drop the dedicated 3.5mm jack? Give up on music or adapt to the market?
