    I’m angry that the new(er) phones get features that PHONES FROM 2015 ALREADY HAD.

    Everyone is so pissed when Apple does it but when Google does it its A-okay? I don’t want to upgrade my phone just because a feature that was removed for no reason other than to sell chromecasts is now being added back.

    I love CONSOOMING new phones. I love buying the new thing every year and creating e-waste!! Yes big brother please remove the SD Card slot and sell me a cloud subscription, yes please remove the headphone jack and sell me a dongle!

    I don’t get it man. Make it make sense. Why is it a good thing that they got rid of the feature in the first place to bring it back later as a “new” feature.

      Some marketing survey shown that insignificant amount of users would use desktop mode, so they bought cheaper USB electronics for their next phone, that’s all. Never mind that Samsung adverises DeX so Galaxy users ar least know there is a desktop mode in their phone.
