- dedicated “home” button instead of the fancy “swipe up” - because of how frequently my toddler accidentally swipes up when playing her games. Or how often I enter the “expose” mode when trying to drag something like an email near the bottom of the screen.
- power button located on top, rather than on the side where i typically hold my phone because of how many times I accidentally lock the screen that stops the video i was listening to when trying to grab my phone, or accidentally take a screenshot of the lock screen when trying to insert the phone into the cradle in my car.
- the small size of the original iphone which was tiny rather than the modern versions that keep getting larger.
- and yes, I miss the damn stereo connector which allowed me to charge the phone while playing audio without dealing with bluetooth.
I wish they released “iphone classic” the size of the original iphone with modern insides and hardware buttons in places where they used to be.
