My Pixel 1 audio jack semi-failed. Nexus 5 was great, Nexus 6 also not bad.

You'll be happy to know that Google completely solved audio jack reliability issues with the Pixel 2 and 3.

They ship you one?

My dongle failed within a month. None of my local stores sell the adapters that include a DAC which the Pixel requires, so I've now been stuck with getting it replaced through Google Support on three different occasions. You can imagine how that went?

I've given up on it now. They just do not last. Forked out $60 AUD for a Bluetooth dongle for my Shure SE215s which has served me well. Unfortunately the battery life leaves alot to be desired.
