The best answer is where the charging port is. So if we all decided it's bottom, then it has to be down there.

All the answers trying to put it at the top don't realise they would have now double problems either when charging or using the jack.

Also, bottom jack makes it great for pockets which is where the most audio time happens.

Bottom sucks though if you want to use the phone with headphones and set the bottom edge down on something (e.g. on your bed).

Yeah, but you can always charge while you are sleeping or otherwise not using it but if you want to listen to stuff in an environment that requires headphones you have no choice but to have it plugged in at that time. Can't exactly pre-play your music or audio book into your headphones at night.

Not at all. Some people want to have the phone sit on a charger station, while also having it plugged in for audio.

Cannot do that if it's at the bottom.

Same for connecting it to a car stereo. You can then have sit in a cup holder.

The people who want it at the top, want it there for a reason. Their usage is simply different than yours.
