I have never taken a selfie in my entire life. The feature is entirely pointless for me. Are there any smartphones that don’t have a front facing camera?

      You’re not. You’re getting it as a free bonus to the personal pocket computer that also has all the phone functions and some more.

          Not sure why it bothers you so much. Any benefit you’d have by not having it is practically negated by your limited choices for phones.

            Like I said, it’s a feature I never use. The selfie camera is completely pointless for me and I’d rather not have it.

              This is like saying you don’t want an apartment/house with a bathtub because you don’t take baths. Most people choose based on features they want regardless if it has one feature they won’t use. It’s just not generally worth the tradeoff of limiting your options when it’s such a common feature. If you absolutely can’t use a phone with a front facing camera though, then good luck with your search (genuine, not sarcastic).

          Some banking apps are asking for live-selfies for authentication, so it’s not entirely useless.
