Since I can’t know which phone is being talked about without watching a video, it is absolutely clickbait.
Currently in a meeting, so I couldn’t watch it if I wanted to.
He likes it… take apart and put together and expandable storage.
He scratches the glass, the phone body, and lights the screen on fire and it still works after.
There should have been a warning about the scratching sounds. I had it playing and wasn’t paying attention, headphones and scratching anodised aluminium with a knife don’t mix…
But which phone is it?
It’s literally in the thumbnail - Fair phone 5.
Thumbnail is unreadable for those of us on mobile. I knew what it was because I knew the FP5 was dropping.
The text is too tiny to read on mobile, and I can’t zoom in on it.
Bottom part of the thumbnail is hidden on Memmy (iOS Lemmy app) by the video URL.
you can read the device name pretty well from the battery, this video is probably about the Fairphone 5
Oh, the thumbnail is too small on my phone and the app I’m using won’t let me zoom on a thumbnail.
That sounds like an app problem. You should let the developer know. Or use another app.
Narrator: It was, in fact, clickbait
Not clickbait except I have no idea what phone is in question unless I click
I’m going to guess Fairphone 5, based on the battery saying “FAIRPHONE 5”.
“The best phone in the world”
Oh cool so it has a headphone jack right?
Honest question, I’m not sure I understand why people are hung up on physical headphone jacks, what am I missing?
A few years ago it was a bummer because I didn’t have good wireless headphones, but at this point decent BT headphones are pretty cheap, and great ones are available. Even cheap BT buds have extraordinary battery life if you know what to look for.
Removing the jack contributed to better water resistance in phones, which has saved my family and friends thousands in replacements.
As far as audio quality, I admit that I reach for a set of wired headphones when I need something to sound amazing, or to eliminate delay while gaming. The wired or wireless audio quality in mobile phones is nearly universally poor unless you use an external DAC (which negates the cost argument) or buy the one or two models built for audiophiles (also negating the cost argument). Also, I don’t seriously game on my phone, so no worries about delay there.
Is this argument a meme at this point, or am I actually missing out?

If one truly cares about features such as headphone jack, removable battery, expandable memory etc. I’d argue Samsung Galaxy XCover 6 Pro is the best smartphone on earth.
No 3.5mm jack.
Basically unusable garbage.
