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 also very much miss the removable batteries. I spent 8 years with my old phone simply because I didn’t want to give up it’s easy swap ability but I have to say that the headphone jack is the thing that really affects and annoys me the most. For years and years I literally carried a pair of wired earbuds with me everywhere I went (coiled up and carried in the small pocket of my jeans). No matter where I was or what I was doing, I could literally be ready to go music mode at any time. I absolutely loved it. Being saddled with the bluetooth buds now and their annoying battery life is not at all ideal for me. I often take very long daily excursions that end up seeing my headphones die on me frequently now and I miss my wired headphones nearly every single day.

      When the iphone first came out, it was nice to be able to use the earbuds with my macbook too.

      I don’t think I’ll ever forgive apple for what they did with the lightning jack
