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

    I was going to mention the IR blaster. I had one on my LG G4 & G5 if I remember correctly. It was so cool! I was so bummed when they stopped having it.

        You can control everything support IR controller(receiver) with that. Like TV or window AC unit

            Yep I totally miss having an ir blaster in my phone. Specifically for the air conditioner.

            Also. Imagine having a universal controller in your pocket at all times.

            TV at the bar? TV at the dentist?

            Ooohhh the hijinks…

      Some phones still have em, most Xiaomi phones do but then you gotta put up with their software or be comfortable flashing a custom ROM.

      I love having an IR blaster in my phone mostly cause my work doesn’t trust us with air conditioning remotes but also I never have to stress about finding the right remote for everything since I’ve got anything I might interact with daily that uses an IR remote programmed into my phone.
