I don’t remember phones ever having FM radio as a norm. Yoy could listen to stations that were playable online if you had data. But that was before streaming is what is now.

Very common before 2010. As far as I know the fm decoder was integrated in the SoC itself (at least it is so in modern SoCs), so it's not even that demanding on the design. Probably not a requested feature, which is a bit sad

I just don’t remember it. Also had a Zune at that time haha
