To be honest I myself feel better when there's no phones or any sort of electronic device that's able to communicate with random places all over the world that I don't know about and possibly tracking all my activity, around me.

I feel at peace surrounded by nature, birds chirping, leaves and trees rustling, waters flowing 🙃

IP67 with removable battery, headphone jack AND IR Blaster. That was effort. The phone itself is even HALF the size of these behemoths. If the processor size has shrunk, why has the hardware offerings done the same?

    One company out there HAS to cater to the tech/spec community. Heck, Razer with their 2nd phone was very close (lack of headphone jack and the small battery didn't help it despite being the only gaming phone with an IP rating, expanded memory, wireless charging, and OIS on their cameras). Sony Xperia 1 II was insanely close but the battery didn't do so well and they screwed over America by disabling 5G (because, for some DUMB reason, they're leaving the 5G/mmWave bands for the more-expensive Pro that isn't out still).

    While I would love magnetic charging/data transfer (including for headphones) ports to be a thing, I crave for a 6" 16:9/6.7" 21:9.5 ratio (for videos that fit in the screen correctly), 2K/120Hz or 4K/90Hz IGZO panel (LCD or OLED, slim bezels or moderately sized bezels; I don't care), 8GB RAM/256GB ROM that's expandable, front-firing stereo speakers, headphone jack with minimum 24-bit DAC, IR Blaster, 5,500mAH battery with at least 25W wired charging and 15W wireless, MIL-STD-G rating while being made of aluminum, 64MP with OIS/16MP ultrawide/13MP telephoto/ToF sensor, physical fingerprint reader (more accurate and power-saving), pop-up cam with ToF sensor for facial recognition and cleaner selfies (well...for me, better video calls), near vanilla android but with software that cares for the battery and is not bloated, and all the global 4G/5G bands of the world (because I really don't think it's hard for companies to program a large amount of these on their phones). I don't think that's too much to ask. It could even be a near $1,000 phone with Dimensity 1000 (it's more powerful than Snapdragon 855 so it can absolutely power the above specs) and I'd get it in a heartbeat. There needs to be options like these in this saturated glass-sandwich market.

                      If you have low iq that can't comprehend or understand that;
                      Respect what phone companies have done. If you want find your perfect phone, go for it. But i can guarantee that you will search forever if you search for such all that features in one phone because it is financially and strategically impossible for company marketing. If they make such phone, no one will buy their next future phone. Accept that you can't have a phone without any compromise.
                      Not everything in this world serve you so that you can have everything you want. Grow up. Wake up from your wet dream.

I never said in particular that 'mobile games are religion' nor do you have to take that in a literal sense, kid. It just means that games like PUBG, on any platform, have massive following and players, now don't let me have to remind you that it is one of the most downloaded mobile games, period, that has made several other developers take note of it's enormous success, and yet we have a 'brilliant' guy here that says "oh it's just awful and boring and crap and repetitive" etc etc. I guess you're just another frustrated person that's incompetent at games especially COD and PUBG that require lots of skill and practice, on any platform, mobile or console. Just stick to Mario Kart, I'd suggest xD

                                  Maybe you haven't heard, but there's a multi-million dollar industry, that has to do with games - it concerns consoles and PC. It might do you some good to read up about how millions of people play games on there - and shockingly, most of the successful games aren't PUBG?
                                  WOAH!

                                  Seriously. Get out of your "mobile gaming is religion!!!!" bubble and get out once in a while. It will do you good kiddo.

                                    [deleted post]"Those awful boring games"

                                    If advanced games as PUBG are awful or boring to you then I guess no game would ever be interesting to you. And games do require one to do things over and over but so what ? There are levels of difficulties and it takes efforts to win at that, but I think you're better off just munching popcorn on your couch while watching Netflix, videogames aren't for you

                                      Don't exaggerate and make a twist. At first, you talk about how bad camera on gaming phones so my explanation only applied in that context. I don't give a fck what you want at all. Just the thing is if you want all that wet dream features on a phone without any compromise, the most possibility to have that will be a flagship phone. Not a GAMING phone. Don't blames GAMING phones for not having your wet dream features because GAMING phones were be built with GAMING purpose as first priority. And also get ready to pay 3000$ for that such flagship phone but i sure a unsatisfied person like you, again, will complaining about the price too. (well only if there a miracle a phone company will read all your complaining in this comment section and will make you a special superphone lol),

                                      You want a pop up + 3D facial recognition + ultrasonic FPS phone, without front camera, with 12Mp+ Wide, 16Mp+ Ultrawide, 8Mp+ Portrait, 8Mp+ Macro, 12Mp+ ToF and you looking at GAMING phones? You really thought a GAMING phone will have all that features? Now take a second and think about that. Then you will realise you not making any sense. You had a wet dream huh

                                      There's. No. A. Perfect. Thing. In. This. World.

                                      And still. The world does not revolves around you. Stop thinking phone companies will make a phone just for you alone. Well, unless your dad have that companies which i doubt

                                        Wrong. They're religion, and currently of the most advanced games on mobile devices, have you even played any of those ? Or don't you know about all the YouTube channels that exist just to create content about those games ? Maybe you just fail at playing them, perhaps they're too advanced for your level of comprehension
