So i just bought Asus rog phone 6d and im extremely bothered by the lack of the back ,home and whatewer is the 3 one called buttons on the news androids. Is this something you all got used to with time or does this still bother you( IT really fells much less intuitive compared to the old 3 buttons ,alghtough preferably i would love to have both since the back gesture seems kinda usefull )?
Past two phones I’ve had (Galaxy Z fold 3 and OnePlus 7 Pro) I’ve had the option for gestures or buttons.
I always pick gestures, I get more screen real estate and the gestures feel good and intuitive.
If you don’t like them, change it, that’s the benefit of Android, you can do what you want.
Not to mention how often the on screen navigation buttons would just burn in. There’d be a permanent outline where they normally are if you were to view any full screen media.
Definitely made sure to enable gesture navigation on my current phone and that hasn’t been a problem.
I was about to consider trying this on my phone and then I read your comment and realized my phone is 3 years old and has had the buttons in the same place (portrait) for 95% of the time it’s screen has been on and it will 100% have burn in.
Is screen burn in still a problem for modern phones in 2023?
Yup i found the setting. Thank you all. Alghtough i will try to use gestures for a while since i see few comments saying they got used to them,maybe i will also get used to them alghtough i have my doubts( Particulary beacuse i like to move between apps quite often ,quite fast,and thats the worst gesture of them all )
You don’t need to go via the task switcher at all with gestures, swipe along the bottom, left or right, instead of up, to go directly to the previous/next app. Much faster than the buttons and the main reason I was excited for gesture, as I’m also a huge mobile multi-tasker.
Ohhh that i did not notice. That changes things quite significantly
