Can't wait for people with these to talk on speakerphone in public (or just play their music at max volume)

On the other hand I wonder if "600% higher" is just 8.5 dB louder. (700% total) - which isn't nothing, but "In general, to measure loudness, a sound must be increased by 10 dB to be perceived as twice as loud."

Those will... not sell. Elementary school kids have smart phones. This isn't 2009 when the cool kids are sharing earbuds to listen to their Zune.

Train dudes rubbing their hands in anticipation

Here a truth no one wants to acknowledge: smart phones suck. Both iOS and Android are awful. Phones are unrepairable future e-waste. Being able to use your phone as a desktop has never happened beyond Samsung's DeX for reasons I can't comprehend, because there's no good reason they couldn't be. Smart phones are trash and have made the world a worse place.

RIP to everyone in a subway car with some asshole that has this phone.

XLR socket or bust!

I just want a phone designed to make spoken word more audible in noisy environments, so I don't have to use some sketchy app when I'm trying to hear a poorly balanced podcast over the stove fan while cooking.

This just sounds like q feature that I've literally never seen anyone ask for outside of that or movies, basically

Meme phone for sure but the industry is so boring now that I've started to appreciate these occasional weird designs out of China.

One headphone jack is enough. Just pair it with a powerful amp and dac like on the LG V-series.

Mawp. Mawp. Mawp.

Having a headphone jack is great, but this really is a gimmy

I like the design.

Finally the phone for everyone who claims the fairphone is not sustainable anymore because they removed the headphone jack.
