I want a charger in the box (and a decent on). I don't accept that the manufacturers are doing it to "save the planet", they do it to save money but don't pass the saving on to the consumer. If people don't want one maybe they could opt out when purchasing.

Loved the lock screen weather animation that existed on LG smartphones.

Dude! Good Lock has completely changed the way I use my phone to where I can't see myself using any other phone without it.

I tell everyone who has had Samsung for a little bit about it, big refresher for your Samsung. Can't go anywhere else without it

Multiple things to bring back as well as to impliment are;

  1. Replacable Battery
  2. Micro SDXC Card with Sim Card that can also be used as Dual Sim Card Slot
  3. Notification LED
  4. Dual Front Facing Speakers

Things to Impliment;

  1. Larger Longer Lasting Battery that can last All Day for a POWER User
  2. Along with 2 Front Facing Speakers, Top and Bottom Facing Speaker for Surround Sound
  3. Larger Fingerprint Area, Like the whole bottom half of the phone
  4. Sign-In option for longer digits than just 4 as well as longer Patterns
  5. Ultra Secure Folders that do NOT show up anywhere unless on the Half Screen Fingerprint Section You put 3 or 4 select fingers at the same time on the screen which would then bring up the Secret Hidden Folder/Folders that can NOT be Seen/Searched/Bypass Any Security/Seen with Any other App/be Seen by Moving a Sim Card to another Phone/Upgrading and Moving to a New Phone/ or Online in Any Bckup

I want something almost identical to the Samsung Alias 2. I’ve had an iPhone since they came out but would like to simplify with text, talk and email only.

That's one hell of a list, sir! Well done! Especially the bit with the pin numbers (some manufacturers allow for longer PINs, such as Huawei and Honor - 6 digits).

For me, it has to be a free option, you should be able to check a box or tell them in the store whether or not you want a charger. If you already have one, then okay, don't get another one. But people should be allowed to have one for free with the phone.
