>relatively cheap
They cost just as a much as a Poco here
I have a cheapo sambomb that just werks but is starting to get dated
I live in burgerland
Sighh I dont know then
Glorious eu pricing
get poco my friend
does pocomeme have compatability with most of all us networks?
not really
only xiaomeme phone that has them is mix series I think
its a no from me
Damn it lacks a ton of cellular bands
yeah
didn't know that about it, huh
also i was very hesitant about getting a phone without a headphone jack
but its been a week and i'm already over it
i have a little adapter that means i can charge and use headphones at the same time, and it works fine. tiiiiny bit of electrical noise, but you can't hear it as soon as you play anything
don't mean to be a no-jack apologist, i still think it's a fucking dumb thing to get rid of and i'd rather they kept it, but yknow, i pretty much haven't noticed its absence unlike i thought i would
But that means if you lose the dongle you won't be able to use headphones until you get a new one?
well, now i have two dongles, the one that came with the phone and the second one i bought so i could charge at the same time
but i do also have some bluetooth headphones as backup
chances of me losing the dongle are virtually 0 though, its never detached from my headphones. basically just part of the headphone cable at this point
@Adam W I have a dedicated player but most of often when I use the jack on my phone its for podcasts or calling
so pulling out a dongle for that would be annoying
instead of just unplugging the jack from my walkman and plugging into my phond
i can understand that. i don't have anything else i plug the same headphones into so its not an issue for me
ultimately for me i just wanted a phone without a notch more than i wanted a phone with a headphone jack
so my choices were immediately very limited
I'm thinking of getting the sony compact phone
they still make those?
I think so, and I believe it has a jack
"XZ1"
they're running out of cool sounding letters arent they
if not guess I'll just stick with cheap samshit phones
i mean if you don't care about flagship specs then the redmi note series is still good i believe
and they still have headphone jacks
you're clearly not familiar with sonys naming schemes
for instance, my sony walkman is an NWA45
Sony has its own ecosystem for naming shit
I dont care about flagship yeah, I just want things to run farely smooth and be up to date
yeah most of their headphones go by MDR
