I'm using "double chop" to activate flashlight and double twist turns the camera on.

Probably the Quick View Window case on the LG G-series phones. The overview on notifications was great and allowed answering calls without opening the flap while protecting most of the screen. Also the reduced visible screen space did not blast you with light when checking time in the middle of the night.
I'm old... the internet.
IR blaster, removable battery, MicroSD slot, analog headphone jack, unlocked bootloader, stylus. The Note 3 was the peak of android phone design. I'm using an S22 Ultra nowadays because of all those features I'm a huge slut for the S-Pen, even to the point of sacrificing all of the others... But I'd love for the rest of those to make a comeback.

Apple’s 3D Touch on iPhone. Force Touch or whatever they called it. The ability to hard press to get something like a right-click. Wish they’d kept it. Used it every day for placing my cursor.
The ringlight on the bottom of Xperia U.
Democracy in the US.
Doggy style and x-files
You n me, baby!
Stadia, I had great internet and it worked great.
Soli. My phone sensing I was reaching for it made it feel like it was alive. Didn't know what I had until it was gone. I want you back Soli!
Keyboards, optical scroll, and IR blasters.
PIE navigation control
Still using it myself, in fact! LMT is still going strong, though I imagine it would work better if I were able to root the phone I'm using at the moment.
