Headset jack and let me replace my damn battery. Also default option to uninstall non-OEM apps
You're in luck for the battery thing. It's basically going to be mandatory in the EU which should hopefully help push change everywhere
I really hate that it is becoming mandatory. I would have preferred the option to either have a reasonably priced service to replace the battery or have it user replaceable. Forcing one solution just seems not very consumer friendly.
I don't like the compromises they have to make to make them easily replaceable and I never had a battery fail on me.
Well, what we've seen this far is not making it mandatory just means that the battery will not be user-replaceable on 99% of devices, because that's the most profitable way of doing it even if it results in a lot of extra waste
