are we really going to start counting who stole what in all smartphone design.

"These assholes included an antenna and SIM slot again!?! HTC did that last season. So unoriginal."

[–] Matt@lemdro.id 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I wish they still included a SIM card slot.

100% of the phones I purchase include the SIM slot. No joke.

I want even aware iPhone users lost this ability with the iPhone 14 and beyond, until your remark. I'm so sorry. :(

It’s not just iPhone anymore. Pixel 10 removed the SIM card as well.

Wait, how the fuck do you have a GSM phone with no Sim card slot?

[–] Matt@lemdro.id 1 points 10 months ago

eSIM. It is an integrated chip on the device.

Idk, explaining how the crap iPhone is 99 % IP theft doesn't really lead anywhere.

I sort of assumed that these days design patents are mostly ignored by smartphone companies.

After a while it just makes sense to drop the legal stuff and stop wasting money on constant lawsuits.
