And I'm over here wishing I could pay an extra $350 to get a Pixel 5 with a headphone jack. To me, the Pixel 4a is pretty much a headphone jack with a free low-powered smartphone attached. Haha.

You mean, like those things ? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0832JRZZK

Be careful with these things. They can trap moisture that would otherwise evaporate and cause corrosion.

I'd prefer one made by Google that just matches the phone and the curvature of the end. I don't know why I was downvoted...but some people don't need the headphone jack, but still want a reasonably priced phone. A simple fix is to just sell a plug that matches the phone.

Well, no, the simple fix is to ignore the headphone jack. If your needs are "reasonably priced phone", there's no reason to plug the jack. You'd have to have some other need, like "and it can't have a headphone jack".

I just did a quick amazon search - there are many versions of these plugs, there may be one that works well with the pixel.

I actually realized I can get usb-c / lightning covers as well, which is great as all my phones get lint in there, eventually causing problems with charging.

It's really quite simple to make yourself. Just put some epoxy in there and shape it to the Phone.

How on Earth would you remove an epoxy plug?

You don't. The poster in question said he doesn't use it and wishes it wasn't there. Epoxy is an easy and permanent solution to that problem.

The post said he/she doesn't care about the port and would rather buy one without it. That means it doesn't require to be removeable.

How bout a case that doesn't have an opening for the hole.

Flex Seal?
