I have never taken a selfie in my entire life. The feature is entirely pointless for me. Are there any smartphones that don’t have a front facing camera?

For me it’s a giant hole in my screen that doesn’t serve any purpose.
look, if you cant figure out what to do with holes thats your problem
Instructions unclear, dick stuck in charging port

It’s often also used to detect if you’re holding it to your ear, which allows the phone to switch off the screen when you’re in a call.
@Hyperreality @stebo02 no, there are extra proximity sensors for that feature.
~~Not always. More and more phones in the budget range utilize a “virtual” proximity sensor which actually uses the camera for the same function.~~

You’re thinking of the gyroscope, but no. Some phones have a dedicated proximity sensor for things like detecting if you’re in a call and have the phone up to your ear, but more and more phones (especially the budget ones) these days use a “virtual” proximity sensor which utilizes the front camera to perform the same function.
