L4sBotSamsung sees 95% drop in profits for a second consecutive quarter
kingshrubbMaybe they could stop taking features away from their phones. Put a micro SD and aux jack back and I’d buy one
AlchemyMaybe I am in the minority but I’ll never need an aux jack again and I see it as another point of failure for water damage.
donut4everA lot of people use the headphone jack still. Bluetooth will never be as good as direct connection. Some people don’t own cars with all that Bluetooth bullshit, or just prefer to use the jack since it is lossless audio. People want to charge and listen to music at the same time.
ThtevenThis is why I’m still using my LG v60, it had the best headphone jack and dac at the time and probably still does looking at everything else currently on the market.
I personally don’t use the headphone jack at all, but I still want it back for people like yourself. Also, being ok with the headphone jack removal lead to removing the sd card slot, then the charger from the box. Next they’ll removing the charging cable and send us just a fucking phone. They’ve boiled us very slowly in their pot
Next they’ll removing the charging cable and send us just a fucking phone.
Oh you mean like google did? I was pretty surprised and disgusted they didn’t include a charging cable with my pixel 7. All I got was a 6 inch data transfer cable.
Are you serious? Just a 6" cable? Wow.
Yup. I’m using the chargers from my old phone
That’s why I’m holding off on phones until this one stops. Then I’ll go buy the same exact phone from eBay. I’m done with these assholes.
I’m still rocking the v60 also. LG started packing a world class DAC into their smartphones back with the LG v35 and kept it going all the way to their pinnacle (the v60). The v35, the v60, and everything in between had audio superiority that still hasn’t been beaten by other modern flagships.
I’m going to be inconsolable when my v60 finally needs replacing.
V50 user here (didn’t get V60 cause of the larger size)
I broke my phone a few months ago, filtered GSMarena for a replacement that’d fullfil my criteria, and Sony Xperias were the the best of the few options that it spat out. Ended up just fixing the V50 for $100, I too will probably hold onto this until it actually breaks.
