    And if any of those things were really that important to large

    They did.

    The gsmarena site says most current Android models have both an
    sdcard slot and a 3.5mm jack & all but a quarter of current Androids >>>>> have at least one.

    How can you flat outright say gsmarena doesn't know fuck about
    phones?

    I know that iPhones sell in HUGE numbers with neither an SD card
    slot, nor a 3.5mm jack.

    Actually expandable storage for an iphone would be a great idea

    I wonder why nobody has ever thought of that before? Hmmm... Oh, wait:

    I think we all know why that isn’t the ca$e, despite what the resident >>> PR folks might say.

    Except it is the case - see above. You're just a dumb-ass troll.

    You moved the goal posts. The idea was a card that would fit inside the
    phone and not some clunky attachment hanging from the bottom like a sore thumb. Try again apologist.

    Of course you would deliberately frame things like that to trash me as a troll, so GFY jackass. You and Arlen both make this cesspit unreadable. I
    can come and go as I please, both of you live for this place.


    Hahahaha ... I think you're absolutely right. Best not to engage
    cultists or apologists, nor their adversaries, whether sane or not.

    of course you did, because that skews the numbers.


    Poor apple. It's a shame that a good ole country telephone
    manufacturer gets maligned so much. Good thing they got you to
    protect them.

    LOL. I did the search with just the basic filters because one set of
    trolls insisted that filtering out the odd brands was skewing the
    results. Now another set of trolls thinks that there should be more
    filter criteria included to skew the results the other way.

    But in any case, anyone can go use the GSMArena phone finder, though
    there are some glaring flaws in their search engine.
