So probably like most users I had the Note7 coming to this phone I have noticed a few things missing that I really need. One of those was notifications the lack of an LED indicator has kinda bothered me. So I went looking for the Samsung always on screen with the clock... I figured without the LED light it would have that so I found in the app store Always on AMOLED. This app help fix my issue of never knowing if I had missed a e mail or text or phone call.

2nd was the lack of the phone vibrating hard enough to feel in my pocket.. I went looking in the settings for the vibrate pattern normally found in 6.0 couldn't find it so i searched around and found an app Light flow I have used this app before to change the color of my LED notification so I can tell if it was an e mail text or phone call I installed the app to help with the first mentioned issue also when I realized it didn;t have an LED notification it surprised me .

I am still trying to figure out other features I am missing has anyone else found things that they are missing with this phone. The calander is another lacking issue for me I like the month view with cut of writing on the days I had something if anyone knows a alternative would greatly be appreciated.

I miss the wireless charging feature I knew it didn;t have it when I ordered it but I still miss it.

The pixel has a LED notification light that can be turned on in the settings by going to notifications, clicking the gear at top right and switching pulse notification light on.

We had multiple notes in the house and got free wireless chargers with them, and they all are in a box. It's slow, it's awkward, and it's just not as good as a regular old plug it in charge....

Samsung fast wireless charging is awesome and every phone should have it. Just like every phone should be water resistant.

I love the way this phone moves. Which is something even the note 7 didn't have consistently. It's the first phone I can say has made my use more fluid and purposeful.
