Just back from the Apple Store.
I like the X. But my current 4S is just so much easier to handle.
The X, by being a bit heavier than it's larger (and smaller) brethren, felt better than the rest.
I liked it.
So, I enabled Reachability and tried to get it to work.
Never really succeeded. Asked one of the Redshirts and she tried it herself for a few times, couldn't get it to work. D'oh.
Then tried on the next one and it worked better there. Then we tried on the original one, could get it work a few times and then it stopped working again.
Meh.
Is it because my hands were very dry or what can be done to make it accept the Reachability gesture a bit easier?
I could see myself sacrificing a space in the launch-bar at the bottom (or whatever it's called that houses, Safari, Mail, Messages and the Phone app by default) just to make it work more reliable.
Am I getting old when at that moment, I longed for the old days, when the iPhone could only do a handful of things and had maybe three gestures?
For a moment, it felt like the old Samsung Note (used for on-call) at work that my co-worker customized to the brink and that makes all kinds of weird noises and has all kinds of weird gestures so that I basically refuse to touch it other than to remove the SIM and put it into the old iPhone 3G (works good enough for that purpose).
I don't want to spend close to 1000 CHF just to be annoyed more often than with my current phone.
Still debating to to get an SE. But it's already a bit dated. Too bad that we won't see an updated SE before 2019, if at all.
