Yet the samsung galaxy s5 existed and had the same ip rating (ip67) as the iphone 8.
All while maintaining both the headphone jack and a removable battery.
All excuses are just that, excuses. They wanted to remove it to profit from the sales of more expensive buds.
When i was younger, physical copies pf games and the used market were common things. Now pc games get no physical release, or if they do these are tied to steam or epic games, and consoles are pushing towards going all digital.
All while raising the prices even though there is no logistics involved anymore.
So i should pay more for something that i can't resell and can get taken away from me for one of several reasons (account gets banned, game gets delisted, service eol...)?
So that's why if it can get pirated, i will pirate it.
