I must be a fkn weirdo because I just don't care about any of these things.
Replaceable battery is an exception - but that's coming back anyway.
I don't have any devices that use infra red
I don't need a microsd because the on board memory is so much I don't even have to think about capacity any more
I much prefer bluetooth
I much prefer a larger screen instead of buttons.
They didn't really cut a hole in my screen, they expanded my screen around my front facing camera. You can disable that expanded portion of the screen on most phones ?
I use the rear camera on my phone all. the. time.
