Btw couldn't they make a popping fron face camera?

I wonder why OP?

So that they won't trigger my OCD

good job idiots
Better yet, why didn't they simply remove the front camera?
>>62052098
this
noone uses the front facing camera
>>62052108
except chads and roasties
>>62052132
noone cares about normies
>>62052108
t. no social life
>>62052146
the phone makers do obviously

Is it possible to be this autstic without PEDs?
why do people want this bezelless crap?
>>62052108
It's pretty hard to take a picture of myself fapping without a front facing camera anon. For my girlfriend of course. Who lives very far away.
>>62052108
Everybody on the fucking planet uses it except for autists
>>62051748
I hate everything about this phone.

>wanting a camera on the display so that when a line of text appears on your notification bar and you read it from left to right the CIA can scan both your eyeballs and have them on file
No thanks JEWssential phone
>>62052172
So the phone can break twice as easily to have an excuse to upgrade.
Why can't we have a phone that's durable AND functional? I love the titanium frame and the screen, but the fucking front facing camera and the fragile design really fuck it up for me. :/
>>62051748
They call it essential because you're essentially fucked
>>62052687
because 95% of people slap on a screen """""protector""""" and put it in a case anyway
>>62052202
>fixed battery
this is normal now. because no one would upgrade phones otherwise much like desktop cpu stagnation.
be glad you get 3 years life out of a typical cell.
>>62052096
This. It's a stupid fucking design and nobody wants to admit it. That camera is fucking awful and the number one thing that keeps me from buying it.
>>62052202
>No 3.5mm jack
>No expandable storage
I refuse to believe this is done by "the guy behind android". He took away the few things that separates andoid phones from iphones. What the fuck has he thinking?
>>62053526
The official reasoning is that people would put cheap chink batteries that explode after 1 month
>>62054444
Which only happens because it's impossible to buy a non-counterfeit OEM battery.
The fixed battery, the iphone-aping, etc, these are all aspects of the same thing. They don't want phones to be tools, they want them to be fashion items, so that you feel the need to update to the latest look. The auto industry learned this almost a hundred years ago.
>>62052172
Why would you ever want large bezels on a phone?
>>62054568
Its overall easier to use phone with bezels. Theyre useful.
>>62054606
>Its overall easier to use phone with bezels.
No it's not. We might as well go back to pic related while we're at it.
>>62053526
What I wonder is what happens to a phone with a fixed battery that freezes? Sometimes you can't even turn it off with the power button, the only option is removing the battery. What do you do with fixed battery phones in this situation? You wait until the battery is empty and it turns off by itself? Or take it apart and disconnect the battery?
>>62054606
how fucking fat are your hands that they spill over onto the screen
>>62054987
It's usually written in the underlying firmware to respond to the power button
only cheap chink or pajeet phones don't have decent firmware.
>>62051748
Skip the popping camera and add a selfie screen to the back of the phone
