      I think that’s just the nature of smartphone related journalism at the moment. It’s sort of a reflection of where the industry is at: lacking substance and focused on short-termism above all else. In the media this translates to a never-ending hype circle around the latest releases, rumours and “leaks”. Everything else has some clickbait name and a bunch of poorly written, irrelevant filler to pad out the “article” for SEO purposes.

      The question in the title is just a hook, but this is still an article, not a Q&A.

      The text tells why the feature matters, tells it’s redundant, lists the phones affected by it, echoes some Samsung notes about the feature, and answers the question. It’s a report on a particular feature, I wouldn’t call it a filler.
