no one claimed it was a feature. it has a jack, some phones don't, so they state it does. this does not mean 'feature.'

it's a part of the spec, so they list it. it's not sad or bad or good -it just is.

for me, i want just usb-c, and no headphone port is a plus. same for sd card, same for removable battery. i thought all of those were important to me, until i realized i haven't actually used any of this in 10 years. yes, a headphone port adds just a tiny bit of thickness and weight. so does the removable battery. so does an sd reader. it all adds up, and adds a little cost. for things i don't want.

so not a feature, not advertized as one, and for a lot of people, not something they want. you do, so get the phone that suits you.

I wonder what you believe the word "feature" means.

[dungdang]

well, clearly you believe on a car, the part of the spec that says 'axles: 2' is a feature. along with everything else in the spec.

[chrismcb]

Yes, and it is a good feature. I don't really want a car with 1 axles. And tires are expensive enough, so I don't want one with three axles. Just because it is not an awesome, whiz bang feature, doesn't mean it isn't a feature

[libraryatnight]

It's a feature, just one you're apparently not interested in.

[dexterdog]

Anything that adds thickness is a feature to me at this point. It's already awkward enough to use phones as phones.

You should google the definition of feature

[dungdang]

why would i google it for you -do it yourself if you don't know instead if asking people to do it for you.

hint: it does not mean 'spec.' for example, on a phone, lcd screen is not a feature. oled screen is a feature.

now, what is not a feature for most people may be a feature for you. just like if you like tap water, a restaurant filling your glass from the faucet may be a feature for you. which does not make it a feature.

edit: since the snowflake replying disabled replies.. no. it's more like claiming 'lcd screen' in the spec is a feature in the world of oled phones. so not a feature.

Note: you can’t disable replies here. The system does it automatically when a thread gets too deep too fast to prevent flame wars. You can reply if you just wait a few minutes.

(Bluetooth) vs (Bluetooth, AUX) supported connection methods for different phones sure sounds like feature disparity to me.

Your analogy is more akin to something like a glass back vs a hard plastic back on a phone, so maybe re-assess that.
