Apparently nearly everything I look for in a phone. Others have said IR blaster, side squeeze, notification light, and pop-up front camera, all of which were amazing.

I'd add an unlocked bootloader (I bought it, it's my phone to do what I want with), removable battery (hello instant charging), and a small form factor (so sick of needing two hands to do anything).

Good news on the battery front: the EU is mandating that smartphones have user-replaceable batteries by 2027. It's not clear if "readily removable" will mean "hot-swappable," but... hope springs eternal, I guess?

Even if it requires some screws to swap that's still good for breathing extra life into old phones.
