my old phone, a samsung j7 i believe, had a live concert feature that would make the music sound much more like you were at a concert, it was a complete gamechanger in listening to live albums. my new one doesnt have that feature :(
I miss them being small and slim. I still use my iPhone SE everyday for a music player. Itβs the perfect size for a cell phone.

I would pay extra to have 3D Touch back
I think there were two issues with it.
They never really had a good UI indication of what elements are 3d touchable. This meant the average user never really used the feature too much and it was frustrating for some to try to find functionality that was "hidden" visually from the UI.
Also the phones with 3d touch had significantly worse battery life than in the following years. Apparently the pressure sensing hardware took up a lot of space in the phone. I'm sure they could have made them a bit thicker, but this is Apple we're talking about.
Force touch still exists on the mac, and it has kinda the same UI issue going on. I'm personally not a huge fan of it though as even if you know you want to force touch something, you can't really immediately do it. You first have to tap/click on the element and then apply more pressure, which makes the process a bit cumbersome.
There is no way to play CD audio in the background on an X Box anymore. It used to be in Groove Music, and then supposedly in Windows Media Player, but I can't find either of those in the store.
I liked the People Hub that Windows Phone 8 started with. But none of the social media platforms wanted you to be able to use their services without seeing their ads so ...
I thought I missed actually having buttons for things, but recently I found out that no, touch screens are usually superior.
