That’s actually the sole reason I changed because I couldn’t type well on a the keyboards. I appreciate the fast pace software. I appreciate I can send more than a text. I definitely appreciate I don’t have to use zoom or other video software to talk with my friends. And as a graphic designer, if I don’t have my computer by my side, I can easily get my graphics and send them where they need to go. As a photographer, I appreciate the fact that the camera on phones today can serve as temporary replacements in case I can’t get my hands on an actual camera. I appreciate the big amount of storage you get on phones today because for people like me, that’s exactly what I need. And also as someone who loves music, having my music right on my phone at my disposal instead of having to grab a portable CD like I did when I was growing up is epic. I come from the era of flip phones and portable dvd and CD players and although I miss some of those gadgets, I understand fully why they are replaced. Yall are legit showing yalls age. And I’m a person that typically likes to keep things traditional. But my phone and gadgets are not one of those things. If phones were like they were in the 2000s while everything else has advanced, I would be highly dissatisfied.

      I have a Sony Xperia sola which will be a teenager in a few months and has been used continuously for the past 13 years, with at least 2 hours a day listening to music on the ATH-M20X, M30X, M60X, WS1100IS and WP900 (the stereo jack has been plugged in and out a thousand times). Two years ago, in the summer, I was at my cottage in the mountains, and coming home one evening, I took the shortcut where you have to jump over a river about two meters wide and about half a meter deep. Since there is no light there, I use the flashlight on my phone and before I jump I put it in my pocket, as I have done hundreds of times before, but this time the phone decided that it should fall in the middle of the river. Thanks to his flashlight being on I was able to get him out of the river almost instantly, he was under water for no more than five seconds but not only is this phone not waterproof it also has a million holes in the case, I immediately turned it off and while I walked to the house, disassembled it and disconnected the battery from the socket. I left it open on a fan heater for 2-3 hours, put it back together and the phone has been working flawlessly ever since. Keep in mind that at the time of the incident, this is an 8-year-old mid-range phone, which, on top of that, is not even on standby, but is fully active.

      The most hilarious part about the Corning Gorilla Glass story is, Corning developed it in the 1960s, couldn't find an application for it, filed-away the formula in their archives, and forgot it existed. They only rediscovered the formula by a lucky accident while cleaning out old records.

    5:50 Example of "False Dilemma" > saying that as much as you liked the headphone jack, you prefered innovation and cool new tech. That presents a False Dilemma. Option 1) keeping the headphone jack but not bringing new tech or Option 2) getting rid of the jack and bringing new tech. When there is also an Option 3) Make your phone 1mm thicker, and have space to keep the jack and all new tech - while ALSO having so much more space now you can have a better battery. But no, Apple lied to us. They said they had "COURAGE" and some BS. They presented a False Dilemma.

    The issue with these "low cost" devices that still have the headphone jack is the fact that people want the headphone jack AND high performance
    Same with battery capacity
    You can get a phone with cutting edge performance, but the battery capacity will be subpar,
    but if you want decent battery capacity, you can get a 13,000mah phone, however you will be getting performance from 5 years ago

      @somethingelse4424 2 года назад +1

      If we were talking about phones being a tool, not an accessory...
      They could also make the devices reasonably durable right out of the box. Instead of making them out of glass on both sides that extends all the way out to the soft aluminum corners, they could recess the screen slightly into a more durable chassis. That way it would have to fall directly on it's face onto an object protruding from the ground in order to break. We should expect a handheld device to be dropped frequently, and probably get wet occasionally.

      @@somethingelse4424 the closest I have found to a phone designed as a tool, is the Ulefone power armor 13, I actually bought one specifically for the utility features, durability, and battery capacity
      it's waterproof up to 1.5M, drop rated to 1.2m onto concrete, has a ring around the screen and rubber on the corners for drop protection, has a massive battery, has most of the bells and whistles that exist in modern flagships, it even has a laser rangefinder, expandable storage, a reprogrammable button, 48MP camera with 4K video recording, a headphone jack, and reverse wireless charging
      But like all these devices, it is cursed with subpar specs in the form of a MediaTek G95 (which is serviceable for games, but is definitely not going to keep up with even last year's flagships) lack of an AMOLED display, and it's hard to get it repaired when it does break since spare parts are not readily available outside Asia
      If it had an AMOLED display, a Snapdragon 888 or dimensity 1200, and was popular enough that parts are available in the west, it would be pretty much perfect

    - FURTHER: you're measuring the space of the port as if that space is at a premium. You could make the entire phone just 1mm thicker and have WAY more space than you ever need for the headphone jack needs.
    - PROFITS. DONGLES. That's why they got rid of it.

      But why would you want change that makes things worse off in some cases? Case in point, wireless Bluetooth tech interferes with WiFi signals. So you can hear Audi stuttering from time to time when this occurs. Not to mention the constant need to charge the head set. I would have been more receptive of a wired standard that uses usbc and improved audio quality over this move. We got none of that.
