Removable battery, micro SD, sim slot etc
Were those ever considered gimmicks?
They don't seem to exist much anymore, so must be a gimmick, right? Useful and popular features surely wouldn't get removed
I get your sarcasm. But I'd like to point out that the claim would be that it's outdated tech, not gimmicky.
It's still a lie, though.
In reality the manufacturers don't have any new good ideas so they have to resort to cost cutting in order to increase profit. They'll just slap a 13th camera lens on the back and tailor their marketing material to make people think they need more lenses over anything else.
My new Nokia G22 would say otherwise. Who has a Nokia in 2023? Me!
