Hello chuffedfox,
first of all, why do you think that Oculus is advertising the "wireless" feature so much. Because it makes sense. You are right, that the ear is just a few centimeters far from the earphone jack, but who has such a short cable (I would have to buy one) and nowadays it is almost standard to have cable less earphones (I use the AirPods from Apple). I find the cables just annoying, especially when using the "Go" without having the chance to see anything and in having the risk in ripping of the cable. Any low budget smartphone offers this feature and I am sure its a matter of cents.
And it would be handy to connect also e.g. an Xbox Controller too.
Best regards, Alexander

It's already using bluetooth for the controller. Just plug your headphones in. I got a short cord for my cans that works perfectly.
My crap android tablet can have 2 Bluetooth connections at the same time. No excuse for the Go not having multiple Bluetooth capabilities in 2018. I was shocked after I bought it to realize it doesn’t have Bluetooth headphone capability
I'm a bit lost as to why you would need Bluetooth connectivity to connect to something that would provide absolutely no benefit for being wireless. It's literally a few centimetres from the headphone port, which is a completely different design requirement/usefulness when compared to having something in your pocket or sat on a desk etc.
So, in short, they didn't add them because it doesn't need them. Not adding unnecessary things is probably the reason why the Go is so cheap, especially compared to the Lenovo offering.
