    Ok, I was confused because OP said USB “sticks”. I knew that Linux phones have standard USB ports so I thought that maybe modern android phones had them too.

      “USB Stick” is the german word for “USB flash drive”. This sometimes leads to confusion.

      And BTW, I have never seen any phone with an USB-A port. As you mentioned Linux phones, the pine phones come with USB-C.

        Ok, I know what happened. Because of Wikipedia’s new layout, I saw “two USB 2.0 ports” but missed the part where it stated that those were included on the docking bar.

        On a side note, I have seen people take a raspberry PI and use a case with a touch screen and a battery so they can use it as a phone.
