Phones should have FM radio not as an emergency feature, but as a method of banging out the tunes. I wanna jam out at a campsite with no downloaded music and no cell service.
We're taking a FM radio there ; )
I don’t own an FM radio small enough to shove up my ass, which a phone with FM would solve. I’m sure phone designers will realize their untapped market soon enough.
That's...that's not where radios go...or phones for that matter...
Then why do phones vibrate

Fine... Angryupvote
We all have our own lifehacks.
Don't judge or you'll be judged too.
There are FM radios smaller and more phallic than there are cell phones. You might not own them, but that's not a problem specific to the radio; clearly your existing cell phone doesn't do FM or you wouldn't be running into this problem in the first place.
Finally, a product for the Everyman. Thank you.
The chances of getting FM reception at this campsite aren't good.
A man can dream, though. A man can dream.
bro are you 12 AM.... wait we arent talking about AM?
