This is still a feature in some major brands though. I have a Moto g power from a relatively recent model year and it comes with a built-in FM Radio app that uses wired headphones as an antenna. It also still has a headphone jack so I don't know how indicative it is of the broader US market.

No thanks. I listened to radio the other day (not in my car) and it was all ads and a shortened version of a song so they can do more ads.

I didn’t realize radio got so bad.

Fun fact: almost every phone on the market has the hardware. It's just drivers/software that are missing (and, more recently, the antenna's been unavailable with the removal of the audio jack. The radio chip is still in there though)

Every phone I had that did this also used the wired headphone cable as an antenna. Personally I do like Bluetooth on the go (for casual listening only), so I'm not actually sure it would be usable unless the phone had a separate antenna.

So glad that mine does.

The one headphone adapter I have doesn't seem to work, and I don't think there was one with the phone. Finicky is probably right!
