It's too fucking huge.
Haha I disagree on that, my current phone is 6.8 inches, I wouldn't mind if it was slightly bigger. But I don't want a foldable phone.
Speaking of using the phone for stuff, this one doesn't have a microsd card slot.
unfortunately this is the trend for high end phones. For some reason lower range phones are more likely to have it, just like the 3,5 inch minijack for headphones.
Phone makers claim it's for better water resistance, except Nokia has one with the minijack that is waterproof.
Never had problem with any microsd card and I've been running them in smartphones since 2010. It's not hard to buy a decent card.
Shrug I guess I just "actually use my phone for stuff".
Not wanting to suck Spotifys dick shouldn't be a niche use case.
Absolutely, we use MicroSD all the time for our Raspberry Pis, It's fast compact and cheap.
These phones only have USB2, so for fast transfer, you have to use something cloud based. A MicroSD would have been nice.
Streaming uses more battery and you can't do it in the backwoods.
I have absolutely no clue how that could work? Didn't they install the SD cards themselves?
OK, I guess that kind of customers exist. I've personally been selling computers back from the mid 80's to the mid 90's, I've never had that kind of customer. Not even once. Kind of strange, considering how bad I hear things can be.
Considering the USB is only 2.0 it might have been handy in some cases.
