The phone goes beyond being just a BlackBerry dupe, however, by innovating in other areas. For instance, its clever “Signal Light” feature offers a light-up button on the side of the phone that can be customized with different colors and light patterns to indicate when you’ve received messages from certain people, groups, or apps.

Oh sweet summer child.

This was default android functionality a few years ago wasn't it? I remember having the "notification dot" or whatever it was called that would light in a different colour depending on the notification.

A few years ago? I had this on my Android phone almost two decades ago. :D

It was on the very first android phone, HTC dream. I still have mine. Bought it on launch day.
