Looking at all the features that older phones uses to have compared to newer ones, I never hear anyone talk about the removal of the notification LED. I personally really liked that feature, being able to see if I got an email, a text or missed a call without turning on my phone was awesome. My Samsung note 8 had this feature, but to my knowledge, newer phones (in the major companies anyway) have abandoned this feature. Did everyone else unanimously agree they don’t care for this feature?
That feature gave me a lot of anxiety and also was often not right. It would get stuck on even though I didn’t have any new notifications. In any case having to make sure to not get distracted by the ominous “check me now” light was not a good thing for me personally
