    I don’t think I’d buy a device with no buttons I mean it could work fine UI wise but what do you do if an app freezes.

      This is a big reason why I wish things had removable batteries, and I really don’t want to buy anything without a hardware force shutdown process. Thankfully laptops have it, but I don’t think phones do anymore.

      Having to wait till a device runs out of battery is a nightmare scenario

        I agree. The System UI has been crashing hard on my S23 Ultra recently due to the One UI 6.0 Beta, which means I can’t open any app or even shutdown—nothing happens. Thankfully, you can force a shutdown by holding Volume Down and Power for 15 seconds.

        There should always be a hardware force shutdown option.

      Maybe shake it repeatedly so that the gyroscope picks it up. 😄 Would be an inherent human response anyway.

      Ha! I came to say the same thing. It looks like a woman’s watch on my wrist. My wife pointed out how feminine it looks on me and she’s right. It needs some bulk for men and larger women.
