Which home button click did you choose? [MERGED]

[coffeemadmanUK]

3, and I'm used to it now

Dunno as my housemate has the 7 and I'm still on the pleb-tier 5S.

What I can advise is that I love the new home button, whatever setting it may be on. I'm pretty jelly.

1, just a subtle reminder of what I am doing. I tried 3 but the strength of the vibration removed the illusion (for me) of clicking and instead I felt the exact location of the tactic engine rumbling in the phone. To a lesser extent I felt the same way with 2. Even with 1 it sometimes feels like the whole bottom of the phone is a huge button being clicked. Maybe in the 7S Apple will refine it and make the vibration more localized to the circular area of the Home button. A vibration ring beneath it or something like that. One thing for certain is I don't miss the physical button at all. I used to have problems with Siri freaking out due to a little dust or moisture getting beneath the button.

I have it set to 2

 

[jianrong]

2 too.

One here.

1. I wish it could be turned off.

Poll is meaningless because it doesn't take into account whether a case is being used. 2 or 3 may be too strong for some users if they rock their iPhones naked, but just right when inside a case.

furios what home button setting people are using?

I use 3, but for some reason, my 3 is the same as my GF's 2. Either my taptic engine is weak or hers is strong.

That's weird like mine. My 1 is the exact same as my buddies 2.

So basically when I press 1 and 2 they are nearly 100% identical. On my buddies phone his 1 and 2 are easy to tell apart.

Annoying issue but I'm not exchanging.

I like 1 its subtle

I've used 3 different phones, and they all have different responsiveness in this regard. Does not say much for quality control and/or consistency.

 

[torontoapple]

2 for me .

 

[Hanzu Lao]

2nd. 3rd is way too strong.

That new Taptic Engine is going to do some very cool things in the near future.

This post did not age well, lol.

I’m running level 3 right now on my new iPhone 7. I will have my new iPhone 8 Plus 256Gigger on Tuesday, I will probably run 2 or 3 on that too. Level 1 home button feels like a old worn out home button lol
[doublepost=1567278363][/doublepost]The home button is genius with the iPhone 7/8 series of phones. I was so impressed by it, and still am.

It actually feels like a real home button.

 

[Bawstun]

I use a 2. I was using 1 for a bit but it doesn’t feel as much like a button to me. Also 3 doesn’t feel like a button to me as it’s too strong IMO. iPhone 7 here too.

 

[Wide opeN]

When I had my iPhone 7, I was 2 kinda guy lol...

This post did not age well, lol.

Isn’t it essentially being used for Haptic Touch these days?

 

[wproct]

Mine is set at 3. One of the reasons that I bought my 8 recently was that I wanted to experience the haptic home button and honestly I haven't been impressed. I actually prefer the physical home button on my 6s. It just seems to take more effort to press the home button on my 8. I must be the odd person here because everyone else seems to love it.
