Everyday I miss my blackberries - people say autocorrect is sogood nowadays but I have never seen it. Typing on a screen consisntely results inerrosraiwhenevrt I’m texting someone. I always slid out the keyboard on my Priv when I had something important or precise to type out.
This paragraph was typed relying solely on my autocorrect to fix any mistakes .
100%.
I would not mind my device being a little fatter if it had a flip out physical keyboard like my old Danger Sidekick used to have.
This is unpopular? I guess I’m unpopular with you. Buttons are absolutely indiscriminately superior to touchscreens for most uses. Autocorrect is the bane of my existence. I think touchscreens only have the edge as far as the physical space they (dynamically) require
I think as with reddit, unpopular opinions are usually actually popular at least within a demographic, if not generally. Or else you’d never see them upvoted.
I used to be able to text in my pockets during class with ~95% accuracy just from feel on those old slide phones. Sure they were inconvenient, but damn the tactile feel was so much better
I definitely typed faster on my phones with physical keyboards. No need for autocorrect when tactile sensation tells you where your fingers are at. :)
