5.25 inch drive bays on computer cases.

KyuubiNoKitsune,

Giving me annoying audible notifications that my battery is low. We moved to batteries that degrade when lower than ~40% and got rid of the notifications that let us know your battery is dead…

Corigan,

Being able to use my phone as a remote control for TV’s that was so awesome. Could mess with TV’s at bars and never had to look for the remote lol

Replaceable battery, micro SD card slots are hard to come by these days, too.

MartinXYZ,

Durability, battery life, repairability.

ObsidianZed,

I know most people here knock the always on display, but my Samsung has the option to only show if I tap the screen or a notification comes through. I also use the option that blinks a certain color light around the perimeter of the screen and/or the in screen camera so it effectively simulates that old led.

I only miss the IR blaster. Headphone jack, replaceable batteries etc are gone for a good reason.

My trusty old Psion Series 5 was an awesome pocket computer that would run for three weeks on two AA batteries!

It also had a large touch screen and a clever physical keyboard that was just large enough for ten-finger typing.

I used it for 15 years, it was amazing and no smartphone ever came close.

intensely_human,

Rewind! None of my devices have a rewind feature any more and it’s driving me crazy!

Headphone jack.

My current Xiaomi phone has an IR blaster, but what I miss is having an IR receiver as well, trying 100 random remotes to find which one works with your obscure TV/AC is such a pain when you used to be able to just clone one instead.

Gallardo994,

I don’t really miss 3.5mm, neither do I miss SD card slots. I don’t even miss replaceable batteries and all that stuff. But I do sincerely miss good devices with physical keyboards. Damn I wish Blackberry came back for a good flagship.
