Phones don’t have IR blasters anymore for the same reason they don’t have aux ports or SD card slots anymore.

And for two, cutting those things increases the profit margin of the phones they sell, even if only slightly.

They also removed radio capabilities. Rip the days I would listen to live radio at 2 am while I washed dishes at chili’s.
