Wasn’t some spy company just caught selling info of people whose phones pinged near family planning clinics? If I turn my phone off, I want it off, dammit. Bring back phones that let us remove the battery just to make sure.
You can do that with Fairphones. In fact you can take the whole screen off them in the dark with your bare hands. Also, they have two SIM slots which I think is a pro for privacy.
Nice phone but too expensive for most users imo. We need sub $200 phones with removable batteries.
Another thing, I got a new phone about 3 months ago but the old one still has some unmigrated info on it. So once in a while I power it on to access something. It has stayed charged because there isn’t a battery sucking Bluetooth beacon running when the phone is off. I’d hate to have to keep charging the phone when it’s just sitting in a drawer.
