    I’ll go to iOS again if google takes away sideloading. Android already gave in to lose the expandable storage and headphone jack. What’s left???

      Manufacturers gave in, had nothing to do with Android.

      Android still supports expandable storage and headphone jacks just fine. I recently bought a Sony Xperia 5 V and it has both.

          Samsung really wants to be Apple. Making it one of the worst Android phones in terms of ‘doing your own thing with it’

        There are lots of features that used to be common that just didn’t make the cut for one reason or another. I still have old phones with a radio tuner and programmable IR remote. Some features just took up too much space, some complicated the manufacturing process.

        Some of them still have enough of a market to justify for some manufacturers.
