Open bootloaders, ir blaster, 3.5mm jack, sd card slot, replaceable batteries. The list goes on.

    Don't forget the notification light.

    The most bullshit thing ever. I have a Moto 5g Ace, I was sad it didn't have a light, used it for a couple years before putting LineageOS on it. Low and behold it actually has a notification light that was disabled in the stock ROM! WTF

    Yeah, and unless it's only activating a few pixels at a time it's not the same.

    The notification light for me was never all that useful, i have unique ringtones for everything but i do agree they are an awesome feature for folks in spaces where their phones need to be quiet

    I liked them, if not just because there's no reason not to have it. It was always subtle and functional.

    Is any of that an android feature? It's mostly hardware, I think you can still get devices that have some combination of those (maybe not the IR blaser).
