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 forget which Samsung galaxy model it was, maybe S6, but it had a universal IR blaster built into the phone which was super convenient for controlling all of my devices. I did however often abuse the shit out of it by flipping the channels on bar tvs or turning off the stereo receiver and nobody was ever suspecting it was me on my phone. I guess that's probably why they removed it lol, but it was fun while it lasted.

My S4 had this, but my S7 didn't so they removed it somewhere in-between.
