Usually USA carriers don't have the FM radio , i know Exynos has it. We will have to see if USA carriers get it.

I would use that function.

I would love that! Imagine if it had the HD Radio function!

It's on my Note 8 but I never use it and to be honest, until I saw this thread I completely forgot it was there.

The link above says the opposite: Snapdragon only.

Maybe it's Unlocked Phones for USA that always had the FM radio, but all i know all carriers has never had the FM radio.

It also says "...market/operator dependent" so it may not work at all.

I thought FM radios on phones only work with corded earphones. That's what my dad's LG Stylo 4 said, which has a headphone jack. I thought it said in others as well. The cord becomes the antenna.
My dad is on tmobile.

My T-Mobile branded Note 8 locked has an FM radio chip...

I know all carriers have a FM chip on them even mines, but unfortunately for what ever reason they dont provide the FM radio, is what I'm saying.

I believe most have the fm chip but the carrier might not have it provisioned in their software. I think my old Note 9 had it and one or more of my Moto phones has it.

That is how my Note 9 works.

Verizon must be blocking it even on unlocked

They probably have them but not switching on

I would like if they activated it on the N20.. Note 9 had it, but Note 10 it wasn't activated (on ATT).

Be nice if they did , don't know why it wasn't.

The carriers want you to pay for their music service. VZW is the worst.

this is the reason I've held on to my BlackBerry Passport. it has the Radio functionality and I dont have to have the wifi on or have a sim card in it. i was using it as a bedside clock until recently, because the battery doesn't hold a charge any more . im surprised they even put it in the device, knowing they're not providing wired headphones in the box.
