One of the great advantages that Android has over the iPhone is the notification LED. That little light, which has been accompanying the terminals of the competition so much, is one of the historical claims that iPhone users have made since the Android began using it. However, it seems that Apple has never been very much for the task of complying with this request, in fact, they do not even seem to consider the possibility of integrating a screen that is always on.
The notification LED will be especially useful for those who do not use an Apple Watch, since let us know if we have an important notification No need to turn on the screen. Even, well configured, can help distinguish the importance of this, and if we are worth taking a look ahead of schedule. Even so, it seems that Apple still does not see the need to raise something like this for their phones. Or at least, that's what they want us to believe.
Recently, thanks to AppleInsider, it has been possible to see a patent in which Apple describes a technology that will serve to convert the logo of the apple that carry all its products, or any other decorative element that is integrated into them, in an intelligent indicator notifications It may even serve to further personalize our phone, the same way it happens with the Razer Phone 2, whose rear logo can be used in the same way.

Of course, this could be an interesting novelty for the new Apple devices, although we have to take into account that this is only a patent. Apple devotes much of its revenue to development and innovation, engineering technologies such as those shown in this document, however, this does not mean that they will appear at some time in their products.
