One of the last reasons that I still use a 6s+ is the TouchID. I still like my headphone jack too, but the TouchID is the biggest feature I don't want to lose

I was a holdout with my 6S and it's Touch ID and headset jack. Finally upgraded to a XR last year due to general slowness of the 6S, especially with CarPlay.

I bought a aftermarket headset lightning adapter. Wireless charging largely eliminated my complaints about charging. Fast charging with an 18w brick is great as well!

I only miss Touch ID when wearing a mask. Face ID is otherwise so much more reliable and fast.
