Headphone jack

Hey, they didn't fuck everything up!

Thats probably because these are old outdated phones that were dump for good reason.

Except that they're claiming Android 15, USB-C and 12GB of RAM.

No existing device has that combination of features, plus a headphone jack.

This thing is a fantasy, plain and simple. Nothing about it is real.

They’re morons and don’t know the difference between RAM and Storage. There’s no way it isn’t 128gb storage.

Moto G power comes close. 8gb ram, but has the other stuff. I enjoy moto phones.

Now if only Sony would get their shit together and start making a compact version of the Xperia line again.

Sorry, I meant "that and made in the US", but I get that that's not what I said.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 14 hours ago

What phone is made in the US anyway?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 20 hours ago

Fair, I'm just a fan boy evangelizing

Don’t forget the code to listen in. You get a twofer. Both the motherboard and rump will add surveillance code to listen in.

About the only redeeming quality of what is otherwise conservative-themed shovelware tbh. 🤣

That's also how you know it's a cheap chinese phone lol, because all the high end flagships don't have headphone jacks (other than Sony I suppose).
