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

Ok, how about features of gadgets that aren't smartphones?

[–] [email protected] -4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Go start a thread about it. That's a pretty vague and broad subject.

That's the subject of THIS thread, PLUS smartphones, even more vague and broad, though you'd never know it from the comment section.

I think this is why AskReddit made their posts title only, with no pictures or texts. OP's question was about gadgets, but then they included a picture of a smartphone and used the text to mention smartphones. It then brainwashed everyone else to misread the question.

Haha you're right. I focused too much on the comments and had forgotten the title by the time I got this far. I had been convinced by them that phones were in fact the subject.
