The front panel is finally flat.

“which is why most PoS devices don’t support swipe anymore”

huh?

This would absolutely be enough to upgrade, barring some stupid sacrifice like the battery now being half the size or something.

Especially for the only model in their lineup you use with a pen. Can’t begin to tell you how often lines at the edge of the screen get fucked by the curve.

Definitely a failure on Microsoft’s part that will make anyone wary of trying the inevitable foldable and slab phones they’ll release. You don’t have to declare a Duo 3 is coming or anything right now, but you have to say that you’re supporting the device that came out less than 2 years ago.

It’s so weird that Continuum mode didn’t make it, but the Lenovo ThinkPhone seems to be getting it.

Finally. This is my favorite side effect of the advent of foldables - more people seeing the big tablet landscape mode of apps, and thus the fact that so many apps are incompatible coming to light.

I disagree. Gestures are better.

It’s subjective. I have no problem one handed and think it’s fewer accidents because it takes more than just a tap to trigger.

That said I’m on Samsung where the gestures are amazing. I still don’t get the appeal of other brands that all have worse update lifetime, worse UI goodies, etc.

While I’m not itching for an app, as I’m just using the built-in home page shortcut functionality in my browser, which launches the web page basically as its own app (no URL bar), I look forward to this and Boost for Lemmy. Way back when, I was a Sync user. If this drops first, I could see myself using that again.
