Soli. My phone sensing I was reaching for it made it feel like it was alive. Didn't know what I had until it was gone. I want you back Soli!

My old Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 had magnetic sensors in it that would shut off the screen. How it worked is you would put a case on it with a cover that would fold over the screen, and the cover had magnets in it that would activate the sensors and turn off the screen when you closed it.

Anyway, it got old and unreliable and I had to replace it. The new ones don't have that feature.

Apple’s 3D Touch on iPhone. Force Touch or whatever they called it. The ability to hard press to get something like a right-click. Wish they’d kept it. Used it every day for placing my cursor.

I have a OnePlus 7T Pro, and I love the pop-up front camera. I don't have an annoying notch or hole in the screen, and the screen is the full height of the phone. I've never had any issues with reliability.

They only used it on the 7 range, and moved to a hole punch camera for subsequent models. I'm holding out as long as I can before upgrading phones because of it.
