What cutout?
There's a hole in the screen where the front camera is. The screen corners are also about as round as a 1950s TV. That's very annoying when apps are not aware of it and things get cut off.
Ew yea those corners are not great either.
You mean like almost every phone in the current generation?
If apps are not aware of that, it is on them…
Oh ya
ITT: people complaining about it being a flagship phone…
No jack. Send it back.
Very annoying but I bought a $5 usb-c adapter and I just leave it connected to the 1/8" end of my wired earbuds.
For not losing it that's fine, but I found that they start failing after a year or so of usage. The usb c connector is much more fragile than the 3.5mm and I guess being more complex (and digital) means that even a small wobble can disconnect one of the lines.
Yeah. The best option I've found is something like a qualtrix dac, where you have to have a USB c to USB c cable to connect it, or run it over Bluetooth. Still would prefer a decent headphone jack on the device.
Same here and now I'm glad that I'm not going to wait for it anymore
