Is there any old phone tech you wish would be brought back in today's phones?

Because real talk, I really wish my HTC One m7 had a kickstand.

HP's Web OS. I had the palm pre and loved it. 

 

There are a lot of phone today with very long battery life.

 

I think they meant like the week or so long battery life that phones used to have compared to now when your lucky if you can get a day out of it.

Week or so of sitting there. Most of the phones I used back then that lasted a week doing nothing only had 2-3 hours of talk time.

I miss physical keyboards on devices, so that's what I wish would get brought back. I don't care if its the slider/fold style or like a Blackberry, but I like the tactile feel of pressing real buttons. I did have the Blackberry Q5 recently and it was able to satisfy my keyboard needs, but the rest of the device held it back(small tweaks would fix my problems).
