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

Headphone jacks and small phones

I picked up a Jelly Star which takes small to the extreme, and has a headphone jack

It's been good so far, minus the lack of 5G which means it won't work with my Android Auto adapter

I kinda of like big phones. Me and my poor eyesight enjoy being able to crank the text scale up without loosing too much screen real estate.

I still miss my 4-4.5" phones... maybe dust pff the Moto G's that still work. (See if there is an update on Lineage images)

Mine still worked a couple of years ago but 8gb of storage doesn't get you very far these days.
