I can't seem to find an answer for this particular phone, but they usually seem to only provide 2 major android versions and another year of security updates.
To me that kind of defeats many of the upsides this repairability provides.

Headphone Jack?
According to Android Authority
HMD is also offering welcome extras like microSD support, a 3.5mm port, an IP52 rating, and a dedicated Google Assistant button. We’re glad to see microSD support and a headphone jack in particular as these features are rare on modern phones.
At first I was also obsessed with a 3.5mm audio jack, then I bought a phone with only USB-C, and guess what, a simple adapter that was in the box, or available for $1 in dollar store, basically does the job. The USB-C plug has 4 wires for gnd/left/right/mic and I can plug any 3.5mm headset on my phone. The adapter is on my headphone for months and it makes no difference me plugging an audio jack or a usb-c plug.
