I just got a new phone that doesn't have it, and I very strongly miss it. I hate having to charge wireless devices. Everything that I can, I get wired.

Doesn't help much that lately it's been getting harder and harder to find good compact wired earphones, most companies pivoted to wireless... And of those that I find, most are the in-ear type with that rubber tip you squeeze deep into your ear... I also don't like that. Guess I'll have to move to over-ears for everything.

I'm not sure what compact wired earphones that aren't earbuds could be but um... they have these things, search for earbud ear hook. Maybe they could be a solution for you?

Since I have to use wireless, I did find myself a pair of those for my new phone. Still waiting for them to ship, though. Over the ear hooks are pretty nice, I used to really like them years ago when they were more common, before the damn rubber in-ears.
