    like using full sized USB over that POS design that micro-usb is would "break the bank" LMAO.
    nice to see they kept the 3.5mm jack however, it has far more uses than just for "earbuds"

    earbuds are really nice to have to avoid often very brain/ear hurting EMF crud, I guess companies like apple do not care if their consumers end up getting brain cancer from being "forced" to use wireless earbuds that cost so much more do not last as long and seem to be very easily broken.

    it is all about the $$$$$$$$$$$ not the damage these companies/corporations do to the consumers or the environment they sell these "throw away devices" that cost a butt load and are not easily (or really ever) recycled to reclaim the materials >:(

    Interesting conspiracy theory, except Apple includes a lightning to 3.5mm jack with their phones. Wired headphones work just fine. Maybe you have your tinfoil hat on too tight today?

    And you should really look into Apple and their recycling program.

    Seems like an interesting device to try for a few days.

    Should have mentioned the Xiaomi Redmi 5A. Best selling smartphone in the price segment that this 7S is trying to compete in. Almost identical specs too, but have been available since December of last year.

    Just a shout out to anybody who has the impression that this is something "unique". The Redmi line has been the incumbent since practically the first one.

    This Umidigi A1 Pro brand cell phone has somewhat better specs and at less cost: ~$110 USD

    However, it's not Verizon compatible.
    And it's also somewhat difficult to determine specific compatibility with other U.S. cell carriers.

    Honor 6A once again shows you don’t need to spend huge money to get a reasonable phone. A grey/black color scheme and a metal slab with rounded sides. Below the 5-inch screen, there is an Honor logo and a fairly thin bezel around it. 2GB RAM and 16GB ROM make it a worthy choice to buy. For anyone looking for the smartphone at the cheap price, should go for it.
