HTC released a phone this year that had expandable storage AND a headphone jack
AND it came with a charger in the box.
I gonna have to wait and see if they actually support this phone but if they do and continue to release phones like this (and ditch the curved glass screen) I would be totally down to switch.
What phone is this? I thought they released one but no jack. I'd be interested if it has one and an unlockable bootloader.
Nevermind. Just saw your post under.
Since the thread has grown large and I had trouble finding the comment I'll just link it here (sorry the link is instance specific, it seems you can't make relative ones)
Yes, the joke in the meme is that Sony is the only "flagship" company that still has those features.
(Though calling them a flagship company might be a little generous)
As for HTC, it's possible that another company bought the rights to the name, i'm not sure. They were making VR headsets for a while, so it's possible they just backed out of the phone market and did something else.
Either way, the phone looks good, with some minor tweaks and some proper long term support it could be a serious competitor
they're functionally extinct
