I remember the feeling of delight I'd peeling back the protective plastic from the my shiny new iPhone X. What a piece of technology. That feeling didn't last. I am now almost a month into utilizing the iPhone X, and now I have gradually realized I unreservedly dislike the device. Actually, I hate using it. But there is actually just one flaw that actually matters to me personally: the telephone is impossible for me to use with one hand. The top of the red bow marks the natural limitation of the reach of my thumb. The top of the red bow marks the natural limitation of the reach of my thumb.
Although the phone's footprint is just a bit larger compared to one of the iPhone 7, 6, and 8, the larger screen. The new gestures needed by the notch mean there is no way to look at my notifications with just one hand, or get the control center. Those are fairly fundamental works, and it greatly limits the usability of the telephone when I am on the move, or when I only have one hand free. I have noticed myself altering my behaviour to try and utilize the telephone, holding it and constantly modifying my traction by sliding my hands up the rear of the apparatus attempting to reach the top of the screen with my head.
With my hands closer to the top of the apparatus, I seem like I am going to drop it. This causes me to automatically bring the telephone down and horizontal, parallel to the ground and close my stomach. This puts the telephone in an awkward place, forcing me to crane my neck. The whole top two rows of programs on the home screen are essentially inaccessible without this sliding movement, and it can make me paranoid I am going to shed the $1, 000 apparatus. I have also discovered a habit of earning my left hand when I am utilizing the telephone nearly all the time.
It rests near the upper left corner of the apparatus, tapping back arrows or notifications like required. With my previous iPhone, the 6, I was able to utilize my pinky as a sort of shelf to the telephone to sit on as I tapped off, composing text messages, checking e-mail, or altering the songs played on Spotify. The X's size doesn't let this occur. I've empowered Reachability, Apple's solution for small handedness on bigger phones. It does not help much. The feature is triggered by a sliding down on the bottom edge of the screen, that is an awkward movement and also makes me seem like I am losing traction on the apparatus. Additionally, it adds another step to utilizing anything near the top of the phone. The fear of falling the telephone comes from the 9 repair bill which comes together with cracking the rear glass of the telephone. I despise the idea of denying that just attempting to see my notifications.
