I am pleased the Note is back, but at least the prices being asked in New Zealand are just crazy. It is selling for 14% more than a M1 MacBook Air.

In Italy is the same price as an M1 Macbook Air

Smartphones are so boring in 2022. Even iPhones. I have my iPhone XR since 3.5 years and I don't need to change it at least for a couple of years, if the battery stays alive

Finally a new "Note"! I just wish it wouldnt be so huge - a more compact 5-6" version with pen support would be the sweetspot for me.

Are there any flagship-level phones with a headphone jack these days? I'm thinking to replace my S10+ soon (just because the battery is wearing out); I'd get the same model if I could but it's not on sale any more.

NZ$1999 for Ultra, verses NZ$1750 for base MacBook Air.

Short story, no, not current ones.

Maybe there are a few Chinese ones, but I think even all of those dropped the headphone jack plus their availability varies depending on where you are.

I don't think any flagships do. You can need to move to midrange. The Samsung A52 is a very nice phone, I set one up for a friend, it has a large battery, great camera and a 3.5mm jack.
