Yep I had a waterproof android 2.3 phone that had a removable battery, microSD slot, headphone jack, and FM radio all included. There were seals around the battery door-flap and rubber plugs for the USB and headphone jacks to keep water out. Another phone I had had all those features minus the FM radio, but it had an IR blaster to control TVs and shit. Smartphones used to be more serious multi-tools, and now they’re just fancy computer tablets with cameras.
I had an HTC phone many years ago, with a headphone jack. The official instructions, for cleaning the screen, were to run it under the tap and give it a wipe lol.
These are all lies made by tech companies to spend less on engineering and production costs while selling products at the same (or higher) price.

I miss phones being real tools.
