You can still find many phones with headphone jack, with sd card slots, with charger in the box. That's the advantage of Android phones, no matter if some models will copy Apple, there will still be plenty of other models who will be unique.

            AnonD-1058210, 28 Oct 2022Only volume ones ? Why not all ?🤷‍♂️Making a tiktok swich involves having a up and running BIOS in backend all the time. Until we conceive wireless charging from mmWave on a planetary scale these electronic can't function. Sadly as now we know we are dealing with endless possibilities, even the banks won't fund such projects. Only things that work in any permutation combination is allowed, bell experiment ll move the universe faster than anyone knows.

                            I like how all apple innovation is to remove something

                              -Trix-, 28 Oct 2022"So they're finally adapting Side Fingerprint Sca... moreWhat makes more sense is under display FaceID. It'll be pretty cool when they manage to move all the front sensors for FaceID as well as selfie cam under the display.

                              My main question here is, how will they make such buttons. I've switched to Poco X4 GT currently which has side mounted fingerprint scanner and in touch to detect mode is constantly getting triggered just by holding the phone. Maybe some sort of pressure force detection that doesn't require moving parts to detect it or something. Otherwise it'll be triggering on every touch.

                                It seems Apple is aiming for there phones to be Meizu Zero.

Seriously it’s like a common pattern. They either lack basic reading and comprehension skills or just twist every Apple article to suit and support the story they’ve already created in their heads. It’s truly comical.

                                      Kurokaze, 28 Oct 2022a.k.a. Capacitive Buttons/ Side Fingerprint Scanner(but on ... more"So they're finally adapting Side Fingerprint Scanner but naming it as "Solid State Buttons"

                                      They should just skip that go directly to "Under Display Fingerprint Sensor" with a new Apple Marketing Name instead"

                                      What are you talking about? There won't be side Fingerprint scanner on iPhone, they already have Face ID, side Fingerprint scanner makes zero sense.

                                        get rid of everything, starting from the headphone jack, charger, SIM, and now this button.🤦
