    headphone jack, NFC, and microSD

    The holy trinity.

    I need to move on from my LG (RIP) G6 soon due to battery life and apps becoming unsupported so I’ve been shopping around.

    Right now I have a headphone jack, NFC, MicroSD, FM Radio and 4k video recording. I’ll probably have to give up the radio at least if not more to get a well rounded phone.

    The G6 came out 7 years ago but it feels like most new phones are a downgrade in comparsion.

      I miss my G6 a lot - easily the phone I was most happy with. Sadly, mine had battery issues years ago.

      Why do I love the phones of (potentially) soon to be dying (phone divisions of) companies? I should ask a therapist.

      My Nokia XR20 has all three (and NFC), that and it being a “tough phone” were the attraction at the time, as it double times as the GPS on my bicycle and track logging hikes etc

      I am not sure if the newer XR21 kept them?.
