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 miss phone bodies being plastic. Sure, metal feels premium but you can't drop your phone without leaving a permanent mark on it. Not to mention how stupid the idea of having glass background is. These days it's hard to see a phone whose glass is not messed up.
To be honest, peak design for me was Samsung's Galaxy S2. I loved that device. Thin, very light, perfect size for my hands. I'd kill for something like that but upgraded to modern standards. I'd also love to see devices with physical keyboard. I waited for BB Key3 to come out when they decided to discontinue the line. Ended up with yet another Samsung device.
I've ran into Uniherz, among others, when I was looking for a new device with keyboard. Titan is a nice concept, but it's too big and bulky. Titan Slim wasn't available at the time, but it seems like a more reasonable device for my use case. However I do worry about lack of software updates and third party support. If either was available, then I wouldn't have an issue. But this way am on a mercy of their software development team to give me patches in timely manner.
