Cons
- No charger and no cable in the box.
That’s a Pros in my point of view ! Because we already have a lot of charger/cable in are house usually.
Yea people should stop complaining about this. Cables that come with phones are always crappy anyway, and I prefer chargers that have multiple outputs.
It’s bizarre how reviewers very quickly gave up on complaining that (other) phones don’t have headphone jacks or expandable storage, but keep hanging on the no charger thing.
It’s like complaining the phone doesn’t come with a SIM or electricity. Some stuff you just provide yourself.
I think it’s just the culmination of removing things from phones and increasing prices. We keep paying exorbitant prices and they keep cheaping out. Smartphones used to be one device for everything and now they are glorified cameras with internet where you need a heat gun to replace a freaking camera. So to me it feels insulting that they would remove a charger.
And all of that sucks, except not including a charger.
It’s complaining about the one thing that actually makes sense, and letting everything else slide.
Pack-in chargers and cables always suck. I don’t get how people use them, especially those cheap rubber 1m long cables. Utterly useless.
And chargers with one port? Who shells out 1 grand for a phone and has just one device? You can get an excellent charger with 4 ports and support for all the stupid proprietary protocols for like 30 bucks. Why would I use a pack-in one?
Complain about lack of replaceable batteries, headphone jacks, expandable storage, complain about Google’s monopoly and data harvesting in phones, not that they don’t give you some useless extra crap.
Well, agree to disagree I guess. I am never going to stop complaining that £850 phone can only work as a paperweight after 24 or so hours unless I already have some charger.
