Are phone notification LEDs still a thing?
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?

I just bought a Sony Xperia 5 IV, it was released last November, and it has one. So they're not completely gone yet. I really appreciate it. Always on displays seem like overkill for that purpose.
Headphone jack, 2 SD card slots, physical shutter button, front-facing speakers
Sony is really behind the competition when it comes to making worse products.
Haha, exactly why I bought it
Front facing speakers, SD card for Spotify downloads, shutter button is nice and basically stock android is great. The 21:9 ratio is something I don't think I could live without now. It's amazing.
That's awesome that Sony is keeping the feature alive. I never liked the AOD concept, it just uses more battery than benefit it provides.
They dropped it in the newest Xperia 1 V. Still kept all of the other great features though.
I was going to say that my Xperia Z5S had one, but thought they may have phased them out by now. Good to see they still include this!
