You also have to remember to have that adapter with you

You can find adapters that can charge while still having a 3.5mm back

Looks like they hit the nail strong and sharp on this one. I am still using my 2019 Nokia which does not look like it's going bust anytime soon. Too bad, I would have loved to use the FF6

After having a phone without a 3.5mm port or a microSD card slot, the top 2 features I want on a phone are a 3.5mm port and a microSD card slot.

Shame Sony discontinued their Xperia 5 series, even if they were also excessively priced.

I know I know, but it was really convenient to keep a spare battery and do a quick swap on the fp4.

Surely, that impacts the battery longevity, right? Personally, I disable all fast-charging features and charge my phone overnight.

P.S. Sorry for calling you Shirley.

An issue shared with the headphones themselves

Think I'm getting it, my Redmi Note 8 is aging and I'm pretty sure the current batch of custom ROMs is basically the last apart from the fact that the kernel is no longer supported, and Xiaomi is closing the doors on custom ROMs more and more it seems. Yeah, the new FP isn't perfect but it seems good enough to pull the trigger, and while the Pixels seemed like a good alternative in some aspects, Google recently made it very clear where they see Android's future, and it's not more open.

It's really a small inconvenience, but using an adapter would mean I'd be prone to misplace it when I use my headphones on anything else, so it hardly makes anything better

The reason for not using a headphone jack is making it simpler for the manufacturer, one less connector to handle which also limits how slim a phone can be.

I'm not saying this is good for the consumer, but there are reasons for integrating the functionality into the USB-C port.

aw man, this is the first i'm hearing about discontinuation. apparently it's because people want larger phones?!

i have a 5 IV and it is by far the largest phone i've ever owned... i wish it was like an inch smaller. but it was the only model i could find that doesn't have a non-rectangular screen. these bloody camera cutouts are everywhere and i newer even use the front camera.

no jack, no deal

I just leave the adapter plugged into the headphones. Then there's nothing extra to manage.

It's all about the heat. It's not dumping 120w non stop even over 90% for example. OnePlus also use supervooc not standard usb pd. My phone legit does 150w max and while I mostly use my 80w charger because my tablet uses that I can't say my battery seems affected much 2,5 years in.

Who is jack?

See wish list item 1

I don't mind having a few screws to remove every few years when I need to replace my battery.

Although there is another thing, I'm not sure but I wonder if it has any impact. My FP3 has made a few very bad falls and nothing ever broke. I wonder if its "bad" integrity makes it very good at dissipating the fall's energy.

main camera, AI-powered low-light magic

Can I turn it off? Can I? I just want my photos, the real ones, however bad they are. I don’t want them to be half generated.

Just to be clear, unless you're shooting RAW you never have your "real" photos. Every phone/camera performs massive amounts of post processing, including using ml models.

AI is only a buzzword for something that has been the norm for a while.

Is there any chance this is the same HDR technology that has been around for at least 10 years, but using latest marketing buzzwords?
