AT&T is strongly requesting that all 2016 Android powered phones come with a working FM radio chip. Many phones already ship with FM chips inside them, but the manufacture doesn’t turn them on. AT&T is also asking if manufactures turn on any old phones with the chips inside as it is simply a software update.
There is no exact reason on why AT&T has taken this stance, but I am sure it will be welcome among many Android users. FM radio uses far less power and no data to listen to music. Of course you can’t pick the song you want, but for free you can’t complain.
