I don't own a TV and have never seen any real use for it. I have already saved a couple thousand dollars by never having to upgrade them either. 
It has even the benefit of not having the need for renting a flat with big living room to fit the TV in it.

"as useful as a "Bull with T!ts"....

Not that you would ever appreciate it from the 5 m viewing distance you need to take it all in your field of view, so I take your point about the questionable usefulness, but it is nowhere near as crazy as some super-mega-ultra-high-res screens that come with some phones.

No need of root for theming? well, it's good. But the purpose in rooting a phone is to have total access and control of all of it, themes included. I think rooting to access and modify /etc/hosts file to block ads sites and access to sites without using an external dns server. Other purposes are being able to acess to terminal and run bash scripts. And many others purposes.

what I dont understand is why they put the screen on the backside and the fingerprint sensor on the front side. should obviously bevon the same side.
