why there is no radio on s10+ (exynos) where other phone like m40 , A50 has it?

I am very disappointed with s10+, it's premium phone but missing basic functionality, the camera is poor, missing radio

FM radio is country specific and surely you are aware of.

That's not an answer. The question was why is there no FM radio. The true reason why Samsung denied it to certain countries by installing a different chip remains unanswered for me. I wonder if it's pressure from Google to get app and advertising revenue. It was totally unexpected for me so I am also sad and disappointed. Samsung better change that for the S11.

I won't buy any new Samsung phone until they put the FM chip Back on the european distribution. So disappointed.    They put the infrarred transductor first and now the fm chip... And in the s21 the remove the glass for plastic and the curved screen for a simple flat one.  I recommend to move to oppo and red magic. The new one is about to go to the market. I'm gonna try it.
