For me it’s the notification light you used to find on older phones, was particularly good to know if your phone was charged without picking it up

Absolutely the damn LED. I would love to trade the stupid never-being-used selfie-cam for a damn 5 cent LED.

And swappable batteries. And a headphone-jack. And root by default (imagine you winpc came with no admin-pwd. Lol)... And....

What I don't understand is why the notification LED was removed in the first place? It can easily be put under the screen.
The LED was so helpful, and it's so annoying when I don't see an important message for hours, because I haven't used my phone.

I'm guessing... they don't want us deciding whether to engage with our phones, they want us looking at them more. If that means less convenience for us we can get fucked

Fuck. You're probably right. It's all about nudging us towards the behavior they want.
