Not in the modern age. Three grandkids over to the house, three tablets
playing different movies or games, and three sets of (wired) headphones
to keep the peace.

My wired headphones also automatically pair with all my Android devices
and... the Wife's iPad. Just have to plug them in. But some dummy
engineer left the pairing jack off her iPhone...

Must not be too much additional battery. The wife's iPhone 8+ and my
Motorola Droid Turbo 2 are about the same size. However the 8+ has a
2691 mAh battery while my Droid sports a 3760 mAh battery, AND room for
a headphone jack.

If making a waterproof headphone jack wasn't all that difficult for a
cheap phone company, you'd think a premium company could do it.

(Full disclosure: The Droid ain't waterproof either.)
