Re: Why no IR blaster?
Not gonna lie, It almost kept me from buying this phone but I'm glad I didn't let it hold me back. I still have the note tablet with the IR blaster so I still have the function available since when I'm at home I keep my tablet in arms reach. I know Samsung is trimming the fat off of all their phones to make them more streamlined, smooth experience but the IR blaster should be a mainstay. Yes get rid of some of the jedi motion gestures, some of the bloat (which ironically I found myself going to the galaxy app store to download some of it back), heck I don't even mind the dismissal of the SD and removable back! but Samsung needs to tread lightly on some of the good stuff ppl actually use.
