This is why I love the Nothing Phone and my older Pixel 4A.

Even my Moto G7 came with a relatively unbothered experience.

No headphone jack, it's not worth buying.

I wish Apple still made a nice, inexpensive iPod Nano. That was my favorite "MP3 player", and I'd gladly go without a headphone jack on the phone if I could still have a separate portable music device that wasn't garbage.

Pixel 4A has one. I didn't even notice the Nothing Phone didn't until you just pointed it out.

For me, iPhone is a terrible experience, e.g no proper FLAC support and poor Bluetooth codec support.

I can't say I'm a fan of iPhones either lol

Apple/Google partisans think that criticism of Apple/Google is a form of praise for Google/Apple that lets them off the hook.

Isn't the split more Apple/Not-apple? The Samsung is perfectly usable without the Google ecosystem.

As long as we can agree they are both terrible, then all is good :)
