I loved it when my phone had IR. I really hate it when restaurants have tvs on in the dining room. I would turn the volume down or even turn it off. I really miss being able to do that.

I wonder if an IR dongle is a thing that's available and would function well...

Yeah, mine doesn't either, but I guess I could get a USB to 3.5mm, then the 3.5mm IR dongle... Eh, I've lived fine without it, as much as I'd enjoy having it back.

it got better with a54, a53 and a7x ones tho
