Really not sure about this, specifically the two finger gesture bit.
Because of my physical difficulties, I use a Stylus, which is fine at the moment.
Trying to keep hold of the Stylus, whilst fumbling for the two finger swipe screen gesture, really isn’t going to work well for me.
When the time comes, I’ll probably need to look for a third party Notification Shade / Quick Settings / Gestures App, that gets around this.
Yet another case of aesthetics over practicality Google 👎
There’s some good point’s here, even the articles author seems to have doubt’s as to the validity of such devices where updates are concerned.
Putting all those aside for a moment, to me the silver lining is the ability to easily swap out a failing battery or charging port, especially if your a ham-fisted user who regularly rams the connection in. I’ve had no end of these fail over the years and more often than not, simply disposed of the device.
The other thing I miss from back in the day was the ability to disconnect the battery when a device gets frozen, it’s not resolving the underling issue but a great way to get things up and running again.
