If by useful they meant anything that is heavily promoted by Google ads get added on the ‘will not touch with a 10 foot pole’ list. Sure, I guess?

Speaking of phones.
I just had to buy new ones recently for the older folks at home because of the lack of VOLTE support on their phones. Those phones were perfectly fine and adequate for their use case (basic call, message) and they wouldn’t have to change phones if it were not for the 3G network termination.
Now they have new phones with functions that they will never ever use.
