I’m confused. My iPhone 8 doesn’t have facial recognition and it makes me put in my passcode when my hands are wet after doing the dishes, but unlocks on touch otherwise. Am I misunderstanding some very specific tech branding thing that I missed?
I like to listen to podcasts for falling asleep, while charging it. And simply connect it to my 20 year old Hifi system. I fail to see why using a y dongle for connecting a headphone plus the charging cable would make my life better.
I like the form factor, too. I guess the only other choice would be an iphone SE.
I once spend a few bucks on a new battery. Otherwise, it is a perfectly fine phone, used (too) many hours a day by me for years and it‘s still almost pristine. It just works. I don‘t see why one should throw it on a dumpster. If it was a bit faster and had a bit more memory it would be the perfect phone.
But if they come with an upgrade, have a headphone jack would be the killer feature.
I would like to have both. And proper 5G (on phones besides the US edition).
I tend to dislike features that increase difficulty when "texting under the table during class". For example removing physical keyboard, the face must be seen to unlock, and predictive input babysitting.
