Again, my point 1. was the space the headphone jack takes up.
Apple is going as far as to remove the sim-card slot in iPhones lol

Ironically my fav lossless streaming service on Android is Apple Music. Amazon Music HD is also pretty good.
Not a fan of Tidal’s UI and recommendations, and I hate that I can’t see album covers when scrolling through a playlist. Haven’t tried Deezer cause Canada
I think it’s mostly gaining market share cause Steam Deck
Haha definitely possible. Maybe compare side by side and see if you can learn to appreciate it a bit if you’re interested. It’s kinda nice to be able to tbh
As people have mentioned, it’s not about saving $, it’s about saving space inside the device which is highly valuable
Lots of dongles are quite high quality. Apples even sounds good, and Moondrop makes a higher-end audiophile one that’s better than basically any built-in jack. There’s a pretty big market for good USB C dongles (less so for Lightning).
if you care a lot about audio quality, you might know that the companies always tried to save $$ but using pretty mediocre DAC’s internally
The Apple one isn’t very durable but the sound quality is just as good as built-in jacks were. Not as much selection for Lightning :/
Removed by mod
USB C dongles have potential to be higher quality than your built in-jack if quality is the main concern
The difference is massive to me but my parents struggle to notice, so it certainly varies person to person
I found Google tends to get things like construction updates more quickly
I’m pretty techy and work at a tech retailer but, I’m a Classical Music major and teach piano
I like Spark a lot
Feels like one of the best value subscriptions to me?
I use YouTube more than most streaming services and it helps support creators
Reminder to just get a family membership and split with friends, a very good value tbh
Yea no 3rd party launcher is as smooth as the default ones still, but it’s noticably better than it was when I tried a couple years back
Not being able to remove the Google search bar on the pixel launcher is a dealbreaker to me
Insane that on iOS you can’t just change the icons to whatever you want
Nah, Apple needs to pressure you into never giving up your iPhone
I agree, I’ve saved a lot of money/time this way but, I don’t expect this to be a popular take here haha
They’re a lot better in Android 13 from my experience
Well batteries and headphone jacks seem pretty different. You can add a dongle for like $10. Having Apple replace your battery is prob 10x that.
I do 1/2 agree about the AirPods thing but, I’m not convinced the internal space isn’t one of the primary reasons
