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 )?
It’s funny, if you swap gestures with buttons in your post, I’d agree 100% lol
@Vlhacs Yeah, like I said, we call things intuitive without realizing that nothing in this is intuitive at all, it’s all learned behavior.
For me now, swiping at the edges of the screen makes complete sense and needing to go to a certain place at the bottom of the phone to go back was weird because “why would I go to the bottom of the screen to go backwards, that doesn’t make sense”, but it was definitely a learning curve to get to this point!
With all that said, hell, there are still times I really miss the old trackball and full keyboard from the OG G1 (the dedicated hardware button for the camera was nice too, but double tap power isn’t terrible). I wouldn’t want to give up screen space for the trackball, but damn if it didn’t really help with fine navigation and using the phone in the cold!
Different strokes for different folks, I’m just glad we’ve got options so we can all be (mostly) happy with how things work!
