I miss the notification LED
I don't understand why that one has gone away. Like, the 3mm audio jack made waterproofing difficult and was big. But that doesn't apply to the notification LED, does it?
I really miss that feature because now I have no indicator of a notification, short of the major battery drain of setting the screen to always be on. I remember even customizing the colour so that I could tell when I had important notifications. Now I often have to double tap my phone just to check if I have any notifications. So dumb.
Even the water resistance thing is a lie
IIRC Sprint required phones to have them at one point to be on their network. Might be misremembering though.
Wait wait new phones don't have those anymore?
No they can only fold in half. We still need to do some research to implement notification LED technology.
I haven't had a phone with one since the Galaxy S7, but always on displays have replaced them for notifications at a glance.
The s9 had it, rip in piss notification led.
huh, you are right! I really thought that my phone had it, but after checking it has no notification dot.
Damn, that was useful AF, with personalized notification colors for specific contacts. I guess that now smartbands kinda replaced the dot, which is why I didn't realize after 1 year of using it lmao.
