I used to have so much fun back when cell phones had IR blasters. Changing channels and messing with people before it was common knowledge that you could do that on a cell. I wish phones still had that.
Oh man my LG V20 was great for this
Long before smartphones, Casio used to make an IR blaster watch. Nobody ever suspected the person checking the time was messing with the TV.
When the teacher took your watch at the beginning of class it was either test time or tv cart time.
The Redmi line still has ir transmitters afaik
I confirm. The kid in me made me buy it
Back in the day when they were actually focused on putting features into phones instead of stripping them out…
RIP headphone jack 🫡
Swappable batteries was the big one for me
There are still ways to do that. A friend of mine loves to mess woth Telas. He can open their charging door with a device.
