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

    To be fair, expandable storage as we’ve had it sucks. MicroSD cards cause a lot of issues, and a good chunk of Android apps block the ability to use them. Connecting an SSD to your phone is a much better experience.

      Connecting a piece of hardware via a cable, to a small mobile handheld device, is a better experience? Talk about hardware issues. Jostling cables around, looking for a way to charge the phone while its charging port is blocked… SD cards might have been a little slow, but they were at least internal.

      We also lost the ability to encrypt them. There’s basically no external drives that let you encrypt data on the fly.
