The temperature sensor was an interesting idea. Wonder if smartphones will ever get that. Probably not, since it is cheaper to get this information online (but then it is often inaccurate).

The pixel 9 xl has a infrared temperature sensor. I was surprised when I learned this.

what would be the point of a temperature sensor in a smartphone. the smartphone is carried by me. that means I already know if it's cold or hot.

Same with any weather app... you already know if it's rainy, sunny or snowing as well.

a weather app provides also forecasts and weather information for places you intend to visit in near future.
