...I'm concerned they may not recognize that the microSD slot is at least one of the nice selling points of their phones. With so many other phones tossing out microSD cards and headphone jacks, what beyond the price point remains to set them apart?
I guess there's the gesture controls for quick camera or flashlight use, but the former is undercut by these being budget phones with mediocre to poor cameras. Also with the devices being larger it makes the gesture controls feel a little more unwieldy compared to when you were using them on smaller phones.
It's a bummer, as I've otherwise appreciated their phones as cheaper, close to vanilla Android options.
Yep. I hope the 3.5mm jack isn't going anywhere. With 256gb flash built into the 5g stylus I don't feel like I need expansion memory that much, but the slot is still handy for file transfer.
