Hyperbole much?
I honestly think the iPhone X is the worst phone I have ever owned.
Every other phone I have ever bought has been an improvement on the previous. This is the first that I have actively disliked and there is not one single improvement on my previous phone. (S7 edge)
Ymmv and all that. -

It shouldn't be, it should appear when in an app. Talking about the soft navigation bar in Android Pie.
Isn't the back button gone from modern Android too? I was very surprised when I saw a left arrow in the upper left corner practically everywhere on a friend's brand new phone.
As for the functionality, design guidelines specify that the physical (or soft navigation) back button is the "back" button, whilst the arrow in the top left is the "up" button...
Back navigates through history, whilst up navigates through hierarchy. So imagine a generic news app, picking a category and reading a bunch of articles. The back button will take you back to the previous article, the up button will take you back to the category selection...
Still this is Android, so who cares about the design guidelines?
TL
R; Developers are responsible for how the various back buttons behave. -

Registered 18 years agoOh god, forgot about Yodel. Here was me bemoaning getting UKMail for my watch, prefer DPD and UPS by a mile.
That said, UKMail gave me a time slot, which is a first from them ime, and delivered within 20 minutes of the start time. Think they’re merging with DHL in some way, maybe this has improved them, dunno.
Don’t get to play with it till I get home later. -

Registered 10 years agoGot it, now I'm scared to open it Im Case I'm disappointed as I can't return it. It genuinely looks glorious from the box though, such a fucking beast and yet the same size as the phone in my hand. -

Registered 14 years agoIs it worth preordering an XR or am I likely to be able to walk into a shop and buy one come the 26th? -
I'd be surprised if you couldn't, might not get your desired color etc though. -

Registered 15 years agoI think you have to preorder to get one on release day even if they have them in stock when you walk in. -
I preordered an XR earlier, 64 GB, black. Would have loved the yellow one but not with the tacky golden frame.

Haha, I've ordered a 128gb blue, actually excited as I've been stuck with a galaxy s8 for over a year now -

How did you survive -
I've no fucking idea

Bought an 8 Plus a couple of days ago (my first iPhone). Got a great trade-in price on my Pixel 2 - which had really started to chug over the past month or so. I'm sure there's no connection between that and the Pixel 3 release - and I had some birthday cash squirreled away as my parents like to send their cheques really early (it's not until next month), so ended up paying £280 of 'real money' for it.
It's not the most exciting hardware design, but it's faster and slicker than every other phone I've had. Which is what you'd expect from Apple, I guess.

coming from a 6plus rocking iOS 11 so it should be a bit of a jump, no issues with the size as they are the same but a mega screen jump I guess.
